water heater is biting it

So I notice water coming out of my 12gal suburban water heater today. Pulled the outside cover off expecting to see water dripping out of the pressure vent. Nope...coming out of the round chamber where the gas flame does it job. Okay, lots of condensation from running it on gas since we are in a 30amp site. Nope. Along the side of the plate or shelf inside the tube I see a gob of rust midpoint on left side and some dampness. Right side has rust is is slowly feeding water to back and down, then out front when tube has enough water to rise above the lip. Bummer, time to buy a new one and become water heater rv tech. Will wait till we are back in florida in november. Hope it holds out to then. John
