The question makes no sense.

Why do you care about the OD of pipe?

Tubing is spec'd by OD, pipe by ID.

But if you want a fitting that will tell you the exact OD of the pipe, buy a female fitting.

The ID of this fitting will give you the OD of the pipe, sort of.

Garbage in, garbage in.

You should consider registering, and giving some details of the problem if you want a reasonable answer.

If you can't find your calipers, or you are working on a 3' gas pipeline, run a tape around the circumference and divide by pi
