Default Water leaks....

Greetings all,
Yesterday my wife complained of water dripping on her foot on the accel pedal during a rainstorm. I have been all over it trying to duplicate the leak but just cannot see where it's coming in.
Anybody else with this malady?

Where the brake master cylinder and vacuum brake booster are at, it’s connected to the pedal assembly. There’s a gasket that goes between the body and pedal assembly. It’s also possible that critters built up a nest and is preventing the water from throughly draining away and is backing up. You also need to have that plastic cover and associated hood gaskets in place.
