Sorry to hear; hopefully he can get you going again quickly. Since information is so important going forward, I'd ask a couple of question if at all possible.
I would ask why the hose came off or blew. While I know very little about these systems, it's hard to imagine that there would normally be significant pressure while driving down the road. If the hose got caught on something on the highway the problem is very different than if it's a malfunction that could repeat even if the hose is replaced. The best case scenario from my perspective would be if you drove over something without knowing it. If so, the damage should indicate it.
From your description that the leak started after you turned the system on, and after you had heard a loud noise, it would suggest to me that it got caught on something that ripped it off, or got hit by something a tire kicked up. Just a guess on my part.
I would also ask him that while under the coach to see if he can tell how the fluid got inside the motorhome in the first place. Eventually you may want to address that issue. On my previous Class C the floor was not sealed hardly at all between the cab and coach -- I could stick my finger through opening. While your motorhome is a lot nicer and built much better than what I had, I'd look to see how hydraulic fluid got inside so easily.
