If you take your Airstream into the local AS shop... hope they know what they are doing.
If your water heater lacked oxygen... I cannot imagine the interior of the trailer.
Of all the components in our Airstreams, the water heater and furnace never gave us a problem.
The refrigerator ignitor, which was about 1/32nd of an inch off and by bending the sheet metal it was attached, to center the ignitor over the flame, did fix the problem and we lived happily ever after. Our water heater is sealed, so obviously something you cannot do yourself. Please tell us what the problem was and how they fixed it!
