I never did like this setup with the washer and nut design. As ticki2 said early on, he hasn't had great success with those on his camper, as they tend to loosen up. I couldn't figure out what else to do and so felt it was acceptable, since it was outside the interior, even if in the propane compartment.
And then I discovered the "grey" Fernco adapters (with clamps) that again, ticki2 had turned me on to, while I was doing the shower trap.
So I got me an idea and started looking at the area again. I discovered one unglued joint that just happened to be in the right spot (are the RV gods watching out for me or what?).
I also failed to return the 1.25" flex hose within the allotted time that I had bought and decided against using (although I'm rethinking part of that too).
Using parts on hand, I just threw this together this morning.
This design is more compact and forgiving than the previous, making tank replacement a little bit better as well.
