>basement wall starts leaking around a half-assed caulk job that was supposed to seal an old drain/water supply/gas line, not sure what it was

>fuck, broken drain line behind house has to be problem
>have no money for professional fix atm
What's the best way I can either stop the leak (not likely, it's obviously just going to keep traveling the wall), or captchure the water so my basement doesn't smell like shit?
I'm going to get the drain fixed asap, but what's the best way to manage this leak in the mean time?
I can't get a picture my phone takes pics with huge file sizes apparently.
