Just a guess here, but if the leak only occurs while the car is parked I
would suspect the windshield or the antenna hole.

If it occurs only while driving, I would suspect one or more of the rubber
grommets that seal the passages for several wires and cables from the front
of the car to the dash. These can be examined by removing the front grill
and looking at the area in front of the driver. The location of these holes
is consistent with where you say the water is found.
