Water leaking onto driver's side floor, still. 200 1986

Hi everyone. about 3 or 4 months ago, I posted that the underside of the foam carpet underlay was soaking wet. I'd had had my windshield replaced last year, but only recently noticed the carpet being wet. I pulled everything out so I could see what was going on. Soaking the entire windshield show all was nice and dry. Someone mentioned that water spray from under the car could be coming through the firewall. Sure enough. Where the vacuum hose and a wire for the cruise control under the steering wheel shaft by be brake was pouring water in when hosed. I caulked it up on both sides and all is well there. Now I have another less flowing source coming from the DS of the transmission hump just rear of where your foot rests when on the gas pedal. Again, I watered down the windshield and firewall and all remains dry. Could this be the dripping condensation that should drain when the air conditioner is running. I use the a/c all the time now being here in Florida. Where is the drain hose. About 5 months ago or so I replaced the blower motor but don't think I crimped anything like that. Sorry for the long post.

Thanks in advance for your thoughts and ideas.
