Agree, all waste tanks have vents but not all have vent filters. I was told my boat came with one but have been unable to find it...

Sanitation hoses can also become permeated and need replacement. But rotten egg smell is usually battery related as pointed out in earlier posts.
To see if a hose is permeated, take a clean rag, saturate it with warm water, wring it out a bit and wrap it around a hose. After a few minutes take the rag off and sniff. you will know if that is the source....
