What do you call the elbow installed at the gas meter that allows a

comes up from meter, elbow in 1" pipe, with 1/2" pipe out the top.
Functionally the same as using a 1 inch "T" as an elbow, with a
reducing bushing in the top to take the 1/2" pipe. Reducing bushing
is not allowed here. Neighbour's house has the fitting I'm looking
for so I know they exist (or did sometime in the last 30 years).



Typically called a reducing tee.

Nope - a reducing Tee is same size straight through, with reduced
size off the side. I need an elbow with the reduced size off the end,
big pipe makes a 90, small pipe heads off straight.
