Update...two years later, I am replacing the entire tank that I attempted to patch. Although I haven't found a visible leak, the bilge does not smell right. I am guessing it is leaking under the tank and any visible stream is vaporizing in the heat. I have ordered the complete replacement from West Marine with all equipment already installed for about 1,100. Not cheap, but the tank alone was $780 without the pump, monitor, filter, or fittings, so it seemed to make sense to me to get the complete unit for a few hundred more. Will keep you posted how this replacement goes!

if you still have odor in the ER after the new system is installed you may want to check the hoses...they can be permeated to the point the odor from the waste pases through the hoses and into the ER.....
good luck....
