I have one of these:
MASTECH MS2108A 4000 COUNTS AC DC Current Clamp Meter Backlight | eBay
It is what I would use to trace down the current since it has a DC clamp on. There are lots of clamp on current meters but most can only do AC. This one can do AC and DC. With this you could follow the current to its destination.
I don't have any bright ideas where all that current is going. You might try disconnecting the alternator to eliminate that.
