I would think the bathroom has leaked....alot of pipes to a bath, could be any of them. At least you know, now you can fix the problem, and use Kilz to paint with it does cover mold and mildew. The worst problem is not fixing the pipes, but fixing the resultant damage. It is possible that there is a lot of rot and mold. We had a problem in one of our baths where it leaked below. He had a contractor cut a hole in the ceiling and test to make sure everything is OK. Answer The mold may need to be tested to be certain that it has not spread to other areas and has become a health hazard. Have a qualified home inspector look at the house before you finalize. You'll be glad you did.
