What is it?

I have a small leak from this thing. I think, for reference it is 2010 Spartan frame, it is on left side by heater box. I think it came out of white tube. I can't find any tube to go to it. At first I thought I had a heater hose leak but then it seem to come from above, the white tube. The fluid was a small amount I thought anti freeze. Maybe jack fluid or trans. I wish I had paid more attention when wiping it up. Click image for larger version

If its up front near the EVAN's AC/Heater unit its for water of evaporator when it defrosts, usually its longer so will not drip on your GEN HOUSING.
You can find EVAN's info in this link.

Looks like a vacuum control valve for heating and AC. Could be antifreeze from heater core leaking. Might check and see if there is any other fluid in that area.

The item in question is a vacuum pump, it provides the vacuum for heater door mode setting. Still looking for my leak , it may be coming from temperature control valve on heater hose. It sit directly above , I noticed one drop on bottom of it this morning. Did add about 8oz anti freeze to system , but it has been long time since last add.

I had to replace the Evans/Tempcon , " electronic ranco " (heater water flow ) control valve , 2 years ago for a leak problem .
On mine there was an up dated valve that required replacing the wiring back to the dash control head , instructions with the new part and wiring were great for the install.
