Any easy way to repair (a lead pipe) (Ed.)

More clues needed - is it a water pipe, drain, gas, a cable? Is it metal, what type, or maybe plastic?
Hi thanks for the reply its a water pipe. Think it might be lead pipe unfortunately
Turn off the water, drain the water completely from the pipe, near the damage - then you need someone practiced in wiping lead joints, to repair the damage.
OP,
Your attachment wont open up for me?

Or me, too!
Soldered lead dots for securing lead cheeks to dormers? I wonder how many so-called plumbers these days could make a good job of it?

You've got me..... what do you mean?
Pic link failed, post your pic directly here .
It' just a pipe, suggested being a lead pipe, and appears to be set in the ground, in soil, with a rather large nail, or screw set in it, but no evidence of water leakage in the photo.
Do you see... dead people?
... I guess the attachment was visible when you first replied.
