Water Tank/Hose issues

Hi All -

My Tashiba-31 game with 2 SS water tanks. Ever since I purchased the boat 4 years ago, the water out of the faucet has been foul - sulfur smell/taste. I did try shocking the system a number of times, but it doesn't solve the problem. Fixing this has been on my list for awhile, and I've finally gotten down to it.

I took the access cover off one of the tanks and sampled the water in the tank. It was fine! So the issue is either in the hoses, pump, accumulator or all the above. Do I need to eliminate the pump and accumulator as the source before I replace the hoses?

The tank looks to be in good shape - just some kind of material to wipe out. Do I need to be concerned with the discoloration of the seams? My guess is this was probably caused by using bleach to shock the system.
