Melbourne 24K gray tank

Does anyone know how to remove the gray water tank on 2017 24K Melbourne. I need to remove the gas hose for the gas quick connect hose and the gray tank is in the way. I removed the screws holding the tank and the 3} drain valve but it won’t come down. I’m assuming the drain piping is hold it up. Is there a rubber grommet holding the pipe in or is the drain piping cemented to the tank.

If the schematics for the grey water drain is right there is only 1 drain connection to the tank. If it is glued or screwed it doesn't say.

Edit: This is what they sent me for a 2016 model 24K

Melbourne drain piping

Thank you. It would be nice to know how the pipe hooks to the tank. If it’s not a slip in gasket I don’t know how they could fix the pipe to the tank. I’ll see what Jayco about that connection

Gray tank removal

Spoke with Jayco and the gray tank is connected to the house piping with a grommet. All that need ps to be done is remove the Z bracket and the tank will drop down with a little pulling. Of course you need to undo the electrical and drain fittings.
