We're opening a water line closed in winters to avoid freezing splits.
Just found a spot at the end of a long run that has split.Our son told
us about it but neither of us has seen how the crack goes. Is there
an adhesive that can be applied to soak into the split and seal it?

Cut it out and replace it. Should be simple enough to do with pvc.

Ditto. My experience with freezing PVC is that splits rarely run a
few inches - they're usually measured in feet.
