Peter,

As you know these older trailers do not have wash water/gray water tanks. If
you cap the outlet any water put down a sink will eventually back up into
the tub. The way to avoid this is to take the cap off and let it drain. If
you do not have a sewer connection a covered portable tank is used to
collect this used water (some areas you can still drain this onto the
ground). The only other way around it is to install a wash water/gray water
tank. Others have done this and can help you out.

Before you try to remove the underbelly you should understand that most of
the plumbing is on top of the flooring. Go ahead and open up the access
panel to see what it provides access to.

Your leaky black water is most likely just the valve. A minor repair from
what I understand.
