I have concrete block house built in the 60's. The Kitchen sink drain pipe is INSIDE the exterior concrete block wall and is leaking. It connects to a vent pipe (which is about 6 feet away and runs in the wall behind fridge). I thought rather than busting up 6 feet of concrete block (a structure compromise?) Can i just bust a hole right where drain pipe joins the vent pipe and run a new pvc along wall INSIDE the house (but outside the block) and behind the fridge to the sink? This propably means a little voodoo involved when it comes to installing a couple of 90 degree elbows to run it out of the concrete wall and then along the interior of the wall. There plaster board on the wall but there's not deep enough space between it and the concrete block, hence the pipe is inside the block - stupid if you ask me. Any tips/thoughts? Thanks
