That's what I was worried about, if that beam goes accross the whole car the leak could be somewhere from the middle then trickle down all the way to one side or the other.

I'll have a look under the ECU box, its on the right side for me.

If that's so, then it definitely doesn't exist on LHD cars, because that area is occupied by the pedal box cut-out, and the area between the pedal box and aircon heat exchanger box in the middle is clearly visible and has no other holes.

I am going to have another look tonight with a borescope camera, first by going along the inside of the duct to see if that reveals anything. My suspicion currently is that its something to do with the huge middle box containing the aircon flaps and heat exchanger, that goes through a cut out in the body doesn't it? Plus it has the scuttle drains below it. Sounds like a potential problem area.
