Haven't found it yet but I figure it'll be under the house so I'll be sure to let you know when I go on the excursion. I'm not sure what else it could be outside of that because everything else on the panel has no issues outside of it being old and messy(granted I would still like to get everything swapped out over time just because I feel like it's probably good to be safe and get it up to modern standards) but I'm absolutely open to any ideas to prevent worry in the future. One idea I thought it could have been before was maybe a pipe is leaking or weather somehow got to it but it's such a small spot I don't think that could be it. I'll drop some pictures in a little while of the box. I did already purchase the new outlet and the breaker just waiting on the wire to get here to start the party. I swapped out the breaker as my first idea because I was thinking it could have just been old but it wasn't the solution so here we are.
Another thing I was wondering was would there be any problem with just extra added safety grabbing a conduit tube to run it through under the house in case I do run in to any water/animal issues? Oh! Also almost forgot as for the staples. Do you think it could have been stapled too deep somewhere putting pressure on the wire? I was thinking I'd grab some of these instead of the usual ones:

Any cons/pros to using that? I just want to be careful since this will be my first time doing this and want to make it as safe as possible.
