I have a continuous water leak draining into the bilge, but I haven't yet found where it originates. I'm not sure what the fluid is, but it's pink/brown sweet smelling fluid. Not sure if it's salt or freshwater. I recently replaced all my coolant hoses on the engine and I just pulled off the two hoses leading from the engine to the water heater, so now there's no source for coolant to get in the bilge since the engine is not dripping anything. I plan to pull out the water heater entirely since it's corroded out, and I believe this could be the source of the leak, though I haven't been able to confirm that yet.
There are two holes drilled into the bilge liner on the side towards the bow of the bilge. The water leak is coming from the lower of the two holes. When I look into this lower hole, the water level is full up to the bottom of this hole, and the water is continuously flowing into the bilge. The bilge pan gets about 1" of water in about a week.
I've tried poking my head into a number of access locations by the head, v berth, and around the settee, but everything looks dry where I've looked. What would drain into this part of the bilge? What should I be looking for if removing the water heater does not stop the leak?
