I don't think anyone knew there was a manufactured HOLE outside a cassette unit, under the moulding halfway down the bowl.

It difficult to see, I have videos of it, but this site said, it was too large to download it, but without you going on your knees, looking up under the moulding it is the size of a halfpenny.
I think this is it, I looked for the MH you bought from motorhomedepot.com and it was still there Bentley Cobalt

However, if you go on the Bentley Motorhome Forum Facebook site, you will see it on that site, as my MH is a Bentley, and Facebook has noproblems with videos there ! Then of course, you might be able to understand EXACTLY what I am talking about, !
Private group so can't see what's posted on it.

OWWWWWWWW!Fantastic, sorry you cant see it on our facebook site! mm

So look at the pull-out lever, then to the right of that lever, on the first cassette bowl, right under that brim, before it meets with the 2nd cassette. is that little hole ! So it streams out of there, trickles down onto the lever (where I originally thought the water was coming from !)

So NOT flushing it now using a bottle as someone told me to do, and no dripping ! Hurray! So it looks like a STOPPER has come out of the hole, leaving the flush water to pour out of this hole.
Thank you for uploading the picture honey

A parts diagram which may help:


Also a manual.


I wonder if, when you replaced the seal, you dislodged/didn't correctly refit something hence the leaking.

So you mean somewhere to the right of the lever in this cropped photo?

I still can't see any holes and looking at the parts diagram, it has to be the seal?

From the description I think it's hidden under the rim at the base of the swivel top bowl.

I too think it's to do with the seal

Looking at the parts diagram and images from the manual there's a long piece - no 38 - that secures the slider/handle in place, if it's not in properly or whatever is used to secure it (a screw/bung?) is missing then it is likely to leak, I know the diagram shows it on the other side but it may be 'handed' depending on the version of the toilet fitted.

No ! Its a HOLE! I will go up to storage tomorrow, and try and do a photo, but it is so difficult to click my phone, when it is stuck under a rim, But believe me I am looked at the diagrams too given to me on the purchase of the van 6 weeks ago! the Instructions and diagrams DO NOT show that hole, but it is a manufactured Hole ! But thank you for all your help
