    should there not be a feed
    should there not be a feed from the negative side of your leisure battry bank back to the chasis. is your voltage sensing relay ajustable? if the trip voltage is set too low it will leave the leasure batteries connected to the starter battery once the alternator stops spinning. the different brands/capacities/discharge rates could certainly cause noticable drain when there is no alternater feed comming in.
    had some thing similar on a friends van with a voltage sensing relay, exept it was out in the other direction and wasn’t letting charge through when the engine was running so the leasure battery was loosing charge and not charging back up.

    some ideas
    gurgling sounds like either water isn’t getting into the pump so check intake filters (if there are any in your setup) or possibly seals in the pump could have gone. if there has been water in the pump and its frozen that could easily kill it. If you have a little bit more info on how your camper is set up i can probably suggest some ways of testing it. are the tanks inside or outside, is the pump submersible and drops in from the top or inline and feeding from and outlet on the bottom of the tank or some thing else entirely. the more info you can give the easier it is to diagnose.
