Can you tell us what size the pipe is and post a photograph from around 3-4ft away.
 
You could load a photo as rpm suggested, but It’s probably a 3 or 3 and 1/2” connection, a multikwik or McAlpine connector should dirt your problem. MKS3 or MKS10 for the multikwik’s. You could measure the size of it to confirm.

Here is the soil pipe and pan connector - both 4 inches diameter

Daft question, but have you already got a pan connector?

It should do if the 4" one doesn't. As long as it's a tight fit.
