That is the valve in question. No way for anyone to check it other than moving the lever valve to the point where it moves. I'd go with it the way it is. No guarantee that trying to remove it will not break it off causing you to replace the heater possibly. It wasn't dripping prior? How old is it? If it's 10 or so yrs old I wouldn't mess with it and respond with a "item fixed"
