Amana Side-by-side small leak
 

Son has Amana Side-by-side Model SXD 26VW with ice-maker.
I have not seen this, but he describes small srpay like leak from a
clear plastic tube near the top on the back. (Inlet for icemaker is
at the bottom rear). Turning off the icemaking feature has apparently
stopped the leak.
Amana home page says they have no .pdf manual for it. Found some
parts diagrams, but nothing I could recognize.
Clue (maybe): He had new floor put in kitchen Friday, which
necessitated disconnecting, moving unit.
Is it possible that without pressure something froze?
I don't want to go over there and get involved if I can avoid it. I'm
too old and too sore. Anyhoo, is there anyway someone can tell what
the problem may be. ("I had that happen to me" or "they all do that;
you can fix it by...") If, it's a likely parts problem, then I'm
going to have hime call a repairman---which is probably the best
approach in any case.
TIA

Sometimes the water tubes up the back of the fridge are plastic.

When the ice maker needs to refill, it sends water up a tube. Mighta damaged
the tube some how.
