They can do it any number of ways. Mine has the valve right at the tank. On thing to consider is the use of a fernco coupling (google it). If he can cut right before the leak at the end of an elbow and use a fernco to attach to the new piece he should be fine.
Thanks - will look into that. My rig also has cable pull dump valves right at the tanks.

For simplicity of repairs, I think we're going to stick with just replacing the leaking parts.
