I can surely understand that!! Mine was not too difficult to get to when I did it. I am glad to hear your fix is working.BTW I used a heat gun to warm it up and it came out easily if you ever need to replace it.

It would be a MAJOR job for a repair person to change this connection to a metal one; it is a difficult place to reach. The water heater would probably have to be removed. That isn't going to be done out here in West Glacier, Montana.
I was able to do the plumbers tape repair and as of last evening the connection was not leaking. I will continue to check it.
Thanks.
