Thanks to everyone whom has replied.
The motor home is an Alegra which uses a rubber membrane on the roof.
When the guy washed our motor home he pressure washed the roof. He cut a slit in the rubber membrane and water leaked in from that. When I discovered it, the glue had released under the membrane, about 8 inches around the slit, made by the presser washer. I completely covered the exposed plywood under the rubber membrane until I could make room in the barn. It has been in the barn since.
I was going to use thin Stainless steel and make a square patch over the area with a good sealant underneath but the 2 didn't want me to. 2 as in the other half of Fixin2.
We have pondered using the roof coating that covers the entire roof as re-roofing with the original rubber membrane is very costly. UNLESS someone knows how to do it reasonably ?
We thought about buying a product called Liquid Rubber EPDM Roof Recoating.mp4 . You can watch the process of how it is used here http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fKNgsZ4LHyM
Thanks and have a good day.
