+1 using 100W drop light. Should be more than enough to thaw a wet bay with the door closed. If you can't close the door because of stinky slinky access, use a piece of cardboard with a hole in it to block most of the door. Using flame based heat in the wet bay of an RV could end up with an undesirable outcome.
A drain bladder from Home Depot inserted up the drain pipe might dislodge anything blocking the drain pipe. Have to be creative to prevent a poop facial like cutting a hole in a stinky slinky to insert a garden hose and still be able to direct the poop to the ground drain. Be aware that once the clog moves, water will be filling the tank and possible the toilet.

If you can get a garden hose up to the clog, a sprinkler nozzle like this may increase the ability erode the clog from the drain end. There is also one available in the sprinkler system department that is plastic and cheaper, but I couldn't find a link.
