Why would you have your insurance company involved if this is indeed a warranty issue. A dealership should fix this correctly, then send the bill to the manufacturer. If they cannot get it fixed correctly, contact Prime Time directly like I did. Thats another story so I won't bore anyone with it.
I agree with everyone on here that you should not accept it if things are not correct. Mold can settle in later so I would ask for things to be replaced. If there was significant water damage as you say, I would not accept anything but a new camper - if you can prove it was the manufacturer's fault for not putting a unit together correctly or your dealer selling you a unit in the winter time and potentially was not winterized correctly.
Although I agree with your opinion that anything 'not right' should be dealt with under warranty, and not insurance... I suspect this truly is not the fault of the manufacturer or the dealer, the plumbing was working correctly and then 'suddenly' ruptured when connected to city water supply. This isn't a single plumbing failure, the OP has multiple failures and all appear due to pressure (not defects)
