I did follow it up with the usual trick of dissolving a dishwasher tablet in a container of hot water to slosh it all through. The endoscope camera was essential, as it was very hard for me to visualise the location of the blocked drain/hole. I'd seen the Paul Waterloo write-up on audipages which gave me a clue but it worked out more difficult in practice.

I've attached a photo taken from the passenger side (NSF) - you can make out the plastic housing at the top (blower/fan/motor sits in here) and the small gap underneath where the water fills up. The drain hole is on the left (to the front of the car) and it glistens due to residual water. Not entirely sure what that sticky-out bolt is for? Let's hope it's watertight as it was submerged as you can see from the original video clip.
