I found a soft rubber tube coming down by the back of the wheel well (W123 84 300D) that I assume is the end of the drain that originates in the rear of the engine compartment. I could be wrong, as maybe it comes from further up, like the the sunroof or the windshield channel. Wherever, I found it was plugged with debris and mud. I poked that stuff, as I am sure it was holding back water.
