Smell coming from under Kitchen Sink area

31Z owners and maybe others if your kitchen sink area is above the Sewer bay compartment. There is a 5 X 10 inch hole in the floor behind the panel covering the hot water tank and other connections. I stuffed a large sponge in the hole and then used low expanding foam to fill in the rest. If I have a problem later, this stuff is easy to tear out.
In the photo you can see the foam and the basic shape of the hole. The cutoff valves were added when I had to replace the kitchen faucet because of a leak. Now I can cut the water off to just the sink faucet. The orange cable is an extension cord going to the sewer bay where the water pump and several water lines converge. I keep our MH in our RV barn, but when the weather goes below freezing I connect a 250 watt heater. I do drain everything, including the HW tank, but a little electricity is cheaper than freeze repairs. The magnet against the back wall is one of four used to hold the panel that covers the HW tank and various gas and water line connections. Faster and easier than removing all those screws when the panel needs removing for access.
Sorry, the pics are on their side. Could not find a setting to turn them.
