Jeez, just buy a new one.

That's probably not a bad idea.

I'm trying to figure out what it is so I can price it.
And how it works.

For example, what's the purpose of the four female fittings?

I have no idea. Best guess is for attaching pipes, no idea why you would
want to. I also have no idea why there are fore and aft valves.

I do see what appears to be a clean out fitting (two, actually). If it were
me I'd open them up and see if some gunk was keeping the valve open. If you
replace it, all you really need to know is the pipe sizes to which the new
check valve will attach. You will probably have to do some pipe fitting
too - nipple & coupling at least - as it is not likely a new one will fit
lengthwise properly. Cheapest check valves are PVC; brass is both better
and pricier.
