Its above the vent. As you stand in directly in front of the caravan the vent is on the left hand side at the end of the front seat just before the wardrobe, which has the the zig unit on and the fire is on the bottom of the wardrobe.

Hi caris, If the vent is square and near the floor of the van, it should be your water heater vent, if that is the case, you will have two plastic plugs on it at the Left hand side of the vent, one small one at the top, and the bigger one at the bottom ( both have screwdriver slots in them) the top small one is to release air from water heater, and the bigger one is to drain water heater down(when not in use) the brown stains could be the build up of dirt around heater vent,( or more likely from exhaust vent if useing it on gas, especially if gas not used on it for some time, it gives off fumes same as new household cooker switched on for the first time) this could be causeing your stains, Fill water heater,turn on gas, switch on your gas heater switch on control pannel,wait till water heats up ,check the vent to see if any worse,leave on for a few hours(it should burn off any residual dirt etc), Same would apply if it is your gas heater(fire) and it vented out the side of van,and the fridge if gas not used for long periods( or exhaust pipe detached fron rear of fridge) Brown stain removal, i tend to use Tcut on a cloth and rub it very gently,and then polish with a wax, if you need any more information go to arc systems site on this forum, and wizards site there too. hope this helps you
