Leak under fresh water tank

We have developed a slow drip which appears to be under the freshwater tank. I was going to slice the black underbelly material and take out a few of the fasteners so I could peel it back and try to determine the problem. I assumed the fasteners were screws but apparently it looks like nails and a washer. What’s the best way to get them out and I assume I will need to put screws back in when I’m done. Anybody have advice opening up that area of the underbelly to see where it’s leaking? Also if I do need screws does anybody know what size would work the best?

The answer is in Post #26 in the other Thread you asked about how to do it.

Curious, are you sure it's a leak? I had a similar experience after filling my fresh water tank water stated leaking out of the belly. It turned out to be my overflow. It was never plumbed outside the trailer. The dealership has since repaired it.
