Tape up the big holes where the drains used to be & smoke test it from the inside  ;)

If you take the side vent off can you get to the back of this joint?

@wotugonado tend to agree with your draining into the sill comment. IF there where the new water path will go. For my money I'd want to see where it's coming from. IMHO this is a symptom of something else.

Im going to have to bite the bullet and take the vent off then. Hopefully it's all just bunged up with leaves and crud....hopefully

Vent is not hard to take off.

I thought you had already checked behind there! Lol

Me too
First they came for the socialists, and I did not speak out—because I was not a socialist.
Then they came for the Jews, and I did not speak out—because I was not a Jew.
Then they came for me—and there was no one left to speak for me.

Just as an update, thought I'd post a few pictures of my investigations.

Pulled the side grill off to reveal this...


I can now understand how exposed that large taped area is, and can see why it would be an obvious culprit for letting in the water - alas tis not the culprit this time.
I had a poke around, cleared out some leaves and dried mud, took some more pictures and couldn't see anything that particularly worried me.





No lying water or exposed areas...I'm still stumped! Only positive is, I've moved the car down the side of the house to put the wife's car on the front and haven't seen anymore puddles for a good few days now (although it hasn't been that wet lately). Long may it continue!!

Is there something significant or in the picture? Just looks normal when I viewed it.
Other than the huge hole where the drain should be, which was already noted.

Nope, that's exactly my point. Still as puzzled as before!!
