Can someone help me figure out what this piece is that's leaking?

It got bad recently and has pooled up. I have put it off this year, but need to get it fixed.

It is the valve you open to refill your pool from your home or well water supply.

Very easy to replace as the valve will be brass and tubing just PVC.

Do I need that valve?

Is that a pop off as well? I believe that is what's leaking.

I have a manual shutoff already in my shop for that line.

Backflow preventer / Anti-siphon valve

What brand? They make repair kits.

Looks like replacement valves are not that expensive either.

Need to know the size of pipe feeding it.

To be honest, my pipe broke just under the valve however the supply was from my well. We just fill the pool with the garden hose and city water so I haven't replaced mine and it broke probably 4 years ago.
