Water drip, 86PT40

[gregory O]

could be the emergency blow-off valve ?, if the hose leads to a free opening.
If it is a e-valve leak it could imply that the valve was exercised/then hung
open a bit and there WAS an overheat issue in the tank??
the hose has two ends, I would follow both. if yo get to a location that you can
only feel for a leak, use a handfull of blue toilet paper to touch the pipes
then look for a darker wet spot

on the outside. I'm guessing there is a valve on the water heater, which is
located above this hose, that's leaking. Any idea where to start?
