Start where the service line enters, which in most older homes here means the basement wall facing the street, usually low and often near the meter. In houses without a full basement it can sit in a crawlspace, a utility closet or behind a panel. If nothing turns up, a plumber can trace the line from the meter in a few minutes.

Then the valve and the pipe are one problem, not two, because working a valve on brittle service pipe can start a leak in the pipe itself. Pennsylvania has plenty of housing old enough for that to be a live question. A plumber will look at the pipe material first and plan the repair around it.

The valve is not seating fully, which is common on gate valves that have sat untouched for decades. Water at the fixture with the main closed makes any repair downstream harder and messier. Replacing the valve is usually quicker and cheaper than working around it every time.

The homeowner owns it from the curb stop in toward the house in most Pennsylvania systems, and the utility owns the main and the curb stop itself. That split is why a leak in the front yard usually lands on you and a leak under the road usually doesn't. Your water provider can confirm where their responsibility stops on your street.
