Here are the pics from the 6 gallon I replace today. The first shows the skin that is meant to separate the water heater gases from the cabin. There are several holes that are poorly gasketed. I noticed that the grommet for the gas line was ripped likely when the last person installed a new water heater.
The next pic show the tank, in the correct orientation. It is a welded aluminum tank. If this tank had a leak water would be present.
Last pic showing the heat exchanger weld.
