My one dryer had a problem it dried intermittently

When I took the dryer vent line apart I found a low spot, which was
accumulating moisture.......

At first the dryer would work fine, then stuff wouldnt dry...

The problem occured after I replaced a leaky water hose......

I have temporarily re-routed the flex line so that it is more direct
with fewer sharp turns and washed the lint filter as was also suggested
(although it wasn't in any way clogged) and now have a fresh set of warm
sheets nicely folded and put away in my linen closet. It remains to be
seen if this experience has become constant or remains intermittent

So you still haven't checked the internal ductwork?

will try to do that today, but there seems to be ample air flow

How do you know what ample air flow is? Did you measure it before you
straightened out the hose or washed the filter to know if it has improved?

Here's how it looks from where I'm sitting...

The dryer worked fine for some period of time before it stopped drying your
clothes. You've straightened out the vent hose and washed the filter. Let's
say you were right and the lint filter was not "in any way clogged".
Therefore straightening out the vent hose seems to be the thing that
helped. However, the dryer worked fine with the hose in it's bent
configuration prior to the problem appearing.

That tells me that there was restricted airflow which you improved -
somewhat - by straightening out the vent hose. That tells me that you still
have a restriction and the only place left is the internal ductwork.
