After a "no hot water situation" I replaced the hot check valve which fixed the problem but noticed leakage at the plastic elbow. The rubber cone o-ring was in bad shape. Desperate on a "Sunday", I went to a local ACE Hardware to see if they had anything like that but no luck. I did look around and purchased a bunch of different o-rings and found one that worked in a CRANE CPI FAUCET REPAIR KIT #11045 There is an assortment of o-rings and seals in the kit. I used the standard round o-ring that fit perfectly over the cone inside the plastic elbow that fastened to the valve. I hand tightened and no leaks present. I have an Atwood hot water heater in a 04 Winnebago Adventurer 35U. This is in response to my other post below. Now I can relax and have beer and cigar...

Miles from home and anything else....
