How long will this last?

I snaked out the sink drain in my childrens bath and busted through the metal pipe. I was wondering how to fix it myself.

[zackde]

i was thinking all night & it came to my mind about that rubber boots

thanks again

i was redoing the plumbing in my house in the basement bathroom. there was a date etched in the concrete of 1983. busted through the concrete floor. when i got to the drain pipe that was buried, there was one of those boots on it. so they at least last 20 years :D
