Default Water in blower box

I am looking for a drain tube that prevents water from collecting in the blower box. If I take a hard right turn, water poors onto my right foot. I can also hear it when the blower is running and turning as the blower cage is hitting the water.

Now I know why I had to replace the blower last year.. Seems like condensation from the AC is collecting in there as a humid day with the AC on seems to be the trigger..

Anyone know where this drain is and how to get to it?

thanks
Roy

The cowl is dry but there is water in the blower box.
