You're sure it's water and not coolant ? Those heater hoses are a common leak point. Just asking. Otherwise if it is just rain water, I would inspect that cowling gasket for tears over that area. That's the only way water can get up on top of the motor.

I am with Hamfisted on this on. The coolant lines to the heater core and connecting lines to rear heater are over three and four.

One really obscure possibility is the windshield washer lines. They run under the cowling and T off to the PAX spray nozzle then to driver's side.
