Based on the feedback here and my experience drying out my leak, I have come up with a solution that should work well for me.
I talked to the dealer, the camper mfg, and tried speaking to the furnace mfg (don't bother, Atwood won't help). The leak cleanup was dealt with by using a dehumidifier set to max and the blower running without the burner. Running propane added water to the camper which defeated the dehumidifier. A box fan circulated air over the leak but not throughout.
tl;dr: I added a SPST switch to the furnace which connects the blower to 12v. With the switch on and the blower running, I get good circulation throughout. I will place the oil heater in front of the furnace (also between the intake and exhaust) so everything will be heated evenly.
