Thanks. However, I did as you said and there is no give at all. The hose that leaks goes all the way to manifold. I suspect some genius zip tied lines all the way to it. I already cut two in manifold compartment. Looks like my only chance of a repair is to splice before the leak with a shark bite or something similar. Not a good way to repair but I am out of options. only way to get full access is to rip out the underlayment all the way up front. This RV has been haunted by problems from day one and DRV has not done anything but say send me a picture, and then no follow-up. But, thanks for your input.
