We recently bought a 9-year old used RV. It is in good condition generally, but when the toilet is flushed there is a small leak around the base. This is a Dometic Macerator ST8979 with a Thetford ST8979 toilet sitting on it. My guess, given the age, would be that a seal needs replacing or a hose clamp needs tightening. But before I dive into it, having no experience on this particular toilet, any thoughts or comments would be much appreciated.

A Macerator toilet doesn't use a floor flange seal like other RV toilets
Pump discharge connects to several elbows and hose lines using clamps
Water inlet connection could also be leaking
Or the discharge hose vent check valve
