Get the bytes of byte[] as string

Hi, I have a byte[] like byte[] arr = new byte[] {1,2,3} is there a way to get those 1,2,3 or even better new byte[] {1,2,3}. For more context, what I'm trying to do is, I'm source generating for Roslyn and adding fields to the source code via a method implemented as

private void AddField(string name, string value, string type = "string")
{
    _fields.Append($"private static {type} {name} = {value}\r\n");
}

private void AddField(string name, string value, string type = "string")
{
    _fields.Append($"private static {type} {name} = {value}\r\n");
}

I want to call

var arr = new byte[] {1,2,3};
AddField("test", /* somehow inline arr to here */, "byte[]")

var arr = new byte[] {1,2,3};
AddField("test", /* somehow inline arr to here */, "byte[]")
