Any ideas about how to replace this IBC tote valve? The valve stem cracked, and it leaks constantly. Has only been used for water, trying to give it new life as a rainwater collection system.

The whole valve mechanism / spigot looks like it is glued on, rather than screwed in.

I bought a replacement valve (with screw in threads) off eBay.

Any way to make that work? Or should I try a different solution? I can't get the whole valve off, although I only tried turning it relatively gently with a pipe wrench.

If the orientation in the photos throws you off, the tote is currently upside down for maintenance.
