Discovered this hole in my holding tank manifold on 2002 GB Eastbay 43. Could not find any manufacturer info. Anyone have knowledge of where I would start to locate a replacement part or to have one manufactured? Pic included Appreciate your reply!

From the picture it looks like your tank is fiberglass, you could get an aluminum plate cut to the same size and use bulkhead fitting to adapt to hose for the 1 inlet and the vent. the problem would be the pump out where you would have to reuse the dip tube or make another... The other fun chore would be pulling the float switches to access the nuts that secure the existing fixture to the tank.... Or you could just block the inlet port and install a uniseal and the a PVC 90 with a hose adapter....

Think pvc and fiberglass parts, including dip tube replacement. Keep metal parts away from acidic holding tanks.

Yes, urine will eat up metal. Maybe make a new plate out of G10 fiberglass. Jamestown sells it.
