Photo shows main breaker 50 amp with retainer.
The two black wires on main is a big question.
Is ther a ground buss behind the right column of circuit breakers?
Do you have an inverter?

What do those two black wires off the top feed? Are they hot with no breaker?
Seems odd.
I think those are the in-feed terminals if you were not using a main breaker.

rhagfo,
Read the first post. Since the circuit is now for a RV and no longer used for a hot tub it's not a code violation.

Try this: Turn off all RV CBs, power on to the RV. Then at the RV panel turn on the main CB and then each remaining CB one at a time. This may isolate the failing circuit.

With that being said just out of courisity if the dryer and rv have the same readings at the female end I take it that the single 240v for the dryer and the split 120v lines for the rv it is all in the wiring on the inside the dryer or in the rv panel?
The 20A and 50A RV plugs are in fact common household plugs. The 30A plug is unique to RVs.
You definitely want the 120/240V 50A RV plug. You can also have a 50A GFCI on that circuit. If the GFCI trips then you'll need to resolve the rigs ground fault. 50A GFCIs are more common for pools, spas, etc.
