Got the lesson, all right! Assumed it was the water heater leaking, even found what I thought was "proof" in the insulation blanket. So I ordered a new, updated Atwood GA6-8E unit ($451) and will soon have it installed.
The source of the leak, actually, is the gray water holding tank--probably the area near the dump valve inside the unit. The reason I know this is it---after removing the water heater, disconnecting the water, and then turning on the water pump and running water down the kitchen and bathroom sinks--here comes the leak. Fortunately, it is below any wood and probably won't cause any major problems for now. It will be an Airstream fortune to have them repair it.
I'm putting in my brand new water heater and moving on down the road--with a drip every few feet!
