instead of guessing, get a meter, tie it inline with a battery lead, and pull fuses till the drain disappears.
Or use a 12V 20W incadescent bulb in series with one of the battery leads..
Pull fuses until bulb quits glowing.
But there is a lot of fuses involved, since it is a E chassis build some fuse panels are Ford OEM and some will be the coach builder aftermarket add ons and locations may be pretty hidden.
2013 F series trucks typically have high current catastrophic fuses near the battery in the engine compartment plus additional fuse panel in the engine compartment for medium current engine/drive train items plus towing related fuses and relays..
Low current fuse panel on F series trucks which handle pretty much all interior and your lighting stuff were relocated to the passenger side kick panel (this kick panel is two pieces and has one piece that will pull away to reveal the fuse panel behind it) which is a departure from earlier trucks which typically had that fuse panel under the dash on the drivers side..
E series chassis may or may not have the same locations depending if it was and incomplete chassis (no cab) and the coach builder could have very well make further modifications and relocations..
