toilet leak

We have a "new to us"  2005 Scamp 16'.  When the water pump is on, causing pressure in the water system, water leaks out of the air pipe that goes to the outside.  Water also leaks out under the wall between the  bathroom and the kitchen. It doesn't leak into the bathroom!    We can't see where it is leaking from, so we have to assume it is somewhere in the toilet.  I don't know steps to see inside the toilet housing that the toilet sits on.  Can someone help?  Is there a you tube by some miracle?

Not sure what air pipe you

Not sure what air pipe you are talking about? I assume you have a side bath. Most toilet leaks are contained in the bath. I would look in the kitchen cabinet by the bath for leaks maybe pull out the drawer  and check the shower valve connections, The valve bodies are plastic and sometimes crack.

Pictures?

Sounds like two problems. A picture of the air pipe may help. Is it the outside hookup? If so, the check valve has failed. Plastic RV water parts like the shower fittings crack and leak often.  I never walkaway from the campsite with water on to the RV. Good luck with the search and please let us know what you find. It may help others.
