Water manifold box missing
Bought a new to me 2007 Monaco Dynasty ( picture attached ) and the manifold box is missing. They have a bunch of copper pipes and pvc in its place. Does anyone happen to have a pic of the one it should be? Not sure how many ports it has to be since the one on it is a mess

I had problems with our manifold. Replace all of it with copper valves and fittings. So much better. I don't have a picture. Sold that motor home in 2008.

That looks like poly butylene to me since it’s a 2007. If it is I would get rid of it because it fails when water with chlorine is used. If you get your water from a well no problem. There were a whole bunch of lawsuits regarding that with homes, it’s junk. I know from personal experience as I did plumbing for 8 years and I fixed a load of poly leaks in homes. Look it up.

Did you replace with copper premade valve manifold or DIY. If I had a copper manifold or CPVC with valves, even DIY and had no issues, I would probably just leave it alone , but you said it was a mess a couple hundred is not big expense MH wise. I suspect it may have froze so needed to be replaced, pretty sure it was not PolyB like mine from diagram. To OP, If I was you I would check and label all the valves . I think only one or two of mine were labeled correctly OEM. Did a lot of up and down the steps to figure them all out and add labels.
As mentioned I have the polybutylene manifold and pipes. No rush to replace the manifold. It has lasted this long from 95. Knock on wood and its in wet bay, not house walls. Mostly it is filled from well and with 1micron carbon block filter. PO lived on and surrounded farm land sure he had a well. When sanitizing I don't let bleach sit in pipes, but may change to different disinfectant chemical. I suppose in a home would see far more chlorine over decades than a MH. As it dissipates over time as well, I only run from fresh tank so some should flash off. Happy that all fittings are copper and ring clamped as the elbows were a high failure rate in RVs.
BY THE WAY congrats on the new to you coach she's a beut.

Manifold
Manbloc was the one I replaced. I had to replace at least 3 of the valves every year. I used copper and brass ball valves to replace it all. All the parts were available at big box stores. Basically it is two manifolds. One for hot and one for cold. Used a male to 1/2" copper to connect the incoming water. Teed off that to a ball valve and a 1/2" to male to connect one of the lines into RV. Add another tee, another valve and 1/2" to male fitting. Keep adding until all those lines are connected. Do same for the other manifold. There is a fitting that will stand off the manifold assembly from the back panel, used two for each manifold.
Your installation will require a fitting to change from your lines to the manifold. Probably the male fittings I used will not work for you.

The copper mess that is there does not have any shut off valves so was thinking the pen part would be better. Attached is a pic of the one I ordered. Hope it’s the right one

Hey that's 3/8" I'm thinking you need 1/2" I hope I didn't mess you up. I linked that sellers 3/8" manifold by mistake on eBay but fixed it in a few minutes to put the 1/2 up instead. it was in the wee hours of the morning . I'm pretty sure if you find one like I posted that feeds extra cold from bottom it has plate to configure different and might be able bolt or stack segments as needed.

This is the only Manabloc that Veurinks sells so I'm guessing it's the right size.
