Water leaking from Tank Vent

2018 Keystone Raptor 425.

To the right of the water heater there is tank flush valve and a tank vent. I have a small but steady stream of water, appears fresh, leaking from the tank vent.

I’m on city water. I had recently put some water in my fresh tank but not currently using. I have no idea what this leak could mean and what it is connected to.

Appreciate help.

The water pump backflow valve is leaking.. easy fix
You can usually clean it and it'll quit or just put a good brass one in line... but either way, I'd add a strainer on the upstream line to the pump to catch junk from the FW tank. Bunch of threads and how to's on the forum.

Thank you. Glad to know it’s not a big deal. Sure enough, I checked and my water tank is full so it all makes sense. Thanks again.
