What picture?  If the little door is about 2.5-4 inches square that would be the place that stores the sewer hose and the connector to the outlets for the black and grey tanks.

Yes, I can see the link when I go to edit yet there is no picture.
I originally tried to upload it to the post but it failed. That is the way I have done it before. Then I put it in my gallery and did the insert link method. That doesn't seem to work either.

The little door is where the blue hose can be stored. 

The other parts and pieces are to make a more permanent connection to a sewer hookup while keeping the odors from stinking up the area.

I'm often shocked at the number and variety of hoses, chemicals, and connections sold to RVers to help manage their poo.

We do 95% of everything we need with a single piece of sewer hose, the appropriate bayonet fitting, and some disposable new gloves.

It's easy to stand in the sewer parts section at camping world and wonder if you're missing something.  Some of it might be nice to have at times, but chances are you don't need 3/4 of that stuff on that aisle.

If you intend to only dump the tanks at a central dump site - which is what we usually do - then the hose is all you need. If you use the on-site sewer hookup at full-hookup sites, then you will usually need an adapter. This is because the park will want all sewer fumes to be trapped, instead of drifting across neighboring sites, so the adapters make that seal. Typically, you will not be able to connect the naked hose end to these receptacles.

So my blue hose split last weekend, time to get a new one. Some of the ones I see online have something on both ends which might make it hard to slide it in where it belongs. Any suggestions on a replacement?

Available at Camping World (and other places) is the Blueline push on sewer hose kit. I have be using this for years with no problems. The hose easily fits in the hose compartment (up to 15' long). The easy to use slip-on ends have never come undone at the wrong time and the coupling two hoses together for additional length is sometimes helpful.

What timing.   On the last morning of this years Q trip, I pulled out the factory original hose,  it the connector came out with the metal lining unravelling.    I thought I could us push the connector onto the other end, but that doesn't work.  Time for a replacement... :(

That is almost how it happened to us when we was getting ready to leave. I thought I could put it back on but gave up. I had tested it at the house rinsing stuff out before the trip. I wasn't sure how it had been left by the previous owner.  I ordered the one Mike posted. Guess I can look for some place local to dump it.
