Hi
(I posted this yesterday in the plumbing forum with no replies)
What kind if elbow soil pipe fitting is this?
Is it push fit rubber O ring or some kind of solvent weld?
I want to know if it is demountable without causing damage to the vertical soil pipe fitting
Installed in 1966.

I'm refurbishing the bathroom and wanted to make better use of the space, however it's not a problem to leave it as is.
Thanks to everyone for the helpful advice.
