Can someone tell me what is going on with this Manabloc. Looking at purchasing the home and found this when I opened up the panel.

I would say that someone did not make the connections properly.

as my friend fron AZ said, the connections were not done properly. whether there are many leaks or just a few can't be seen from the photo.
sometimes one joint drips onto the one below it and that drips onto the one below it giving the appearence of many more leaks than there actually are.
a plumber who knows about that system will have to look at it..
i would also find out what kind of spray foam insulation that is an make sure it is not harming the plastic pipes and the manabloc..
