Reply to comment by Aqueousfun in Toilet trickling water from jets, but not a leak! HELP by Aqueousfun

Then it sounds like there isn’t a leak and you’re seeing something that isn’t there.

Well, it’s definitely there as I can wipe the side of the bowl with a towel dry, and a moment later there are downward trails of water albeit very slow trails.

Then you have some sort of magic water or something paranormal happening. Call an exorcist, or Dumbledore.

Might just be residual water slowly draining down.

I’m hoping that’s the issue, it’s just crazy it’s taking this long to drain out after a flush from 18+ hours ago.

Stop over thinking it. If water isn't leaking from the refill tube and the bowl water isnt turning blue; job done.

This is with the supply shut off?

At one point yes, I’ll shut the water off again and see if it eventually stops

Also flush the toilet so that the tank does not contain water while doing this experiment. If there is no leak now then it means the flapper is leaking water. Also in such kinds of leaks you will never hear the tank getting refilled because it is continuously getting refilled as it is leaking.
