That's a general pass through, power cord, water hose, propane hose.

Anything on the other side?

There is another similar spot on the other side. But more in the middle. It has the grill hose in it.

The reason i asked was because the other picture you took of the water hookup, you should buy a cover for the vent. It keeps bee's and chipmunk out of it. Her is what I'm talking about. Just giving a heads up.

Ok next question. We filled the tank with water and 2 oz of bleach. I think the manual said to drain the water after 3 hrs. So now both pipes are uncapped. The kitchen sink, and the pipe from the shower. What am I looking for to drain the water? Is there a switch? Or is there something I turn, that would b near either if these pipes?

There should be a freshwater drain under your RV. They are usually marked. There is also on most RV low point drains. There should also be a drain for your water heater. If you drain the water heater, make sure it is not powered on...

Not sure if it's the water heater. But I found something underneath. It is not marked, or that I could c. I don't think it could have been in a more inconvenient location! : /Click image for larger version

Usually the water heater hose is red. Cold is blue. It does look like a drain valve. Turn it on, feel the water temp to determine if it is hot/cold. Watch your water level gauge and it should start showing the tank emptying.

PS.. It takes a long time for the tank to drain. I would suggest that you open your grey water valve (I'm assuming this is a new unit) and turn on your sinks and let the water drain onto the ground/driveway. This will also sanitize you plumbing to your faucets.
