      From the top portion of water heater there is a copper discharge pipe tht extends out and then points down. Near the attachment to the water heater, there is a valve release. There is water dripping (slow) from the end of the discharge pipe. I tried raising the valve and water came out from the end of the pipe. When I released it the water stopped but the slow drip is still there. Ideas??

      Dont need IDEAS. The valve has served its purpose and is now ready to be replaced with a new one. They only last a few years and shuld be replaced periodically even if they do not drip.: From the top portion of water heater there is a copper discharge : pipe tht extends out and then points down.
