Welcome and that is a Big project, Be very careful taking off the metal. Can be real pain to replace and not cheap.
At the top corner, looks like to me that somebody discovered a leak and tried to fix it but they didn't do a very good job. Or didn't use right material to fix. Because you can see new material, (caulking or something) somewhat tooled in place.
I guess you've done a good inspection of entire RV and problem only at rear?
A project like this don't think about your man hours you're putting into it. Think about how you're saving $100.00 per hour over RV shop rates.
Water damage always looks worse than it really is.
Couple weeks ago at my local Home Depot I saw 2x3's versus 2x4's which would save you some time and $$$ if you have access to one near you.
If you have any questions during your project ask away. Many people on here are helpful.
