38mm or 40mm or 43mm,
do I measure the inside or the outside of the pipe?


Its typically the outside diameter that needs to match.

And 40mm solvent pipe is different size than 40mm pushfit pipe !


Yup, by design, so you don't try a solvent weld pushfit pipe (wrong type
of plastic)

aaaarrrggghhhh


Indeed... I keep a stock of both, and a few "universal" compression
fittings so you can transition from one to the other.
