more information on leaks, a/c evaporator hose please...

After carefully patching up under the driver's side hood hinge, from the inside and the outside, it appears as if that area is staying dry but I'm still getting a lake in the rear footwell after it rains!

If it was the a/c evaporator hose that individuals are talking about then the water wouldn't be associated with rain, correct?

I've also heard about the window seals...are we talking about the weather stripping around the door or something altogether different?

Seriously frustrated. My wife is a Pisces, I just got done breaking my back putting gutters up on the house to dry up my basement, and now this....iIm not a man, I'm a full-time water manager!
