Default Water damage in my garage near the water heater

I recently noticed the paint on my garage wall near my water heater was looking a little off color. When I scraped the peeling paint I found the drywall was wet underneath.

Has anyone else had the same issue?

My house is a 2007 designer cypress The tank is on a wooden box at the back of the garage in plain sight.

State Select gas water heater with a expansion tank on the top

Possibly leak from a rusting tray?

Any advise about repairing this?

Approach the gas utility?
