Male fixing - screws into the tank (fuel tank thread inside tank) then seals the O-Ring by tightening the secondary nut. Sometimes this can get broken off in the tank (see advice below). The Male also has a small nut at the top that is thinner than the 2 fixings on the on/off switch plate. Click on option above to see picture.
Female fixing - screws onto the tank (fuel tank thread protrudes from tank) using the large nut on the petcock to attach and seal the O-Ring. The female version had a large wide nut at the top, when undone, shows the tank has threads protruding from the tank. (This can be seen on the home screen of our video below.)

Generator Guru says:
This are a common item to need replacing due to the exposed location of the part. We often hear that something has knocked it, resulting in a leaky, or broken Fuel Tap Petcock.
If you have had a Male Petcock break off with the stem still in the tank, use a pair of needle nose pliers and insert into the stem. Open the pliers up, and unscrew. It should release without damaging the tank. Be careful not to damage the thread on the tank, or you will need to replace the whole tank.

arrived on time and in perfect condition great service.
When shipping took longer than expected, they quickly shipped another one out. Outstanding customer service. Will definitely use again and recommend to anyone. Product was exactly as advertised.
The fuel tap was a better quality than the original, and the service was good too.
Searched for generator parts and came across this company Generator Guru. Glad I did.Easy to identify item required and simple ordering system with advice on how to carry out repair and reasonable price with quick delivery as well. Would definitely recommend this company.First class.
Having purchased from them before, they were the first 'go to' site for me when I needed to repair my generator. They didn't let me down, stocking the part at a very reasonable price. Delivered quickly, the only place cheaper is to buy direct from the parts source, in China, and the delivery times on that range from about a month on and upwards. If you want the part in days rather than months, Generator Guru is the easiest and quickest reasonably priced site. If I need repairs again, I will start my search with them, its a no-brainer.
Service was very good. The part was fitted and is working well.
