the rubber seals may be  bad/poor quality  .  these looks like serviceable screw caps.  for  the sponge fix part  and the black cover  part. 
i would  use  bituminous  sealant round the screw caps.  or  change the  water seals .

this is the first time i see  power lines  on the bath floor. 
where  does this go to ?    water heater power ?? or

The same thing cross my mind, not a good practice to conceal the electrical cable inside the bath flooring. If the cable really for the toilet, the best it just let the conduit run on surface of the slab since it already have the ceiling.

The cap is actually the service eye. Usually it service eye is tighten using the white tape only, no one use the sponge like that.

The dark color sealant looked like a nitrile rubber insulation. Usually the insulation will only be installed at the cold water discharge point to avoid surface condensation (condensate drain pipe) on the pipe surface. Doesn't make sense the insulation.
