the pipe does look like its in a bad state, when doing some work on an old steel heating system not that long ago, one of my workmates was trying to get a 1/2" M/F elbow out of a 2x 1/2" Tee, he heated it up to try and get the stilsons on it and it ended up snapping in the fitting, then it turned into a nightmare but he managed to get it out although it wasn't in an awkward position like this stopcock.
you could cut it 100mm or so off of the floor, and put a philmac fitting on and then continue from there in copper with a new stopcock that seems to be the best and easiest way in my opinion, and as said already earth bonding across the fitting as when fitting plastic your breaking the continuity.
