Went to Lowes, bought a rubber pipe sleeve, trimmed the length to fit, slid it over the ends of the pipes, added a couple of hose clamps and 2 years later, still working fine.

Took the solution right out of my mouth! Had to use them when replacing my knife waste valves on my fifth wheel. Could not get the valves back together without snapping them do to alignment issues. When they snapped, the rubber seals popped out of position. I cut the pipes and installed the sleeves. This gave me the ability to put the drain system together then connect them with the sleeves. Made the job a snap!
