Default Water Leak

Passenger floor board was wet after driving in heavy rain. Never went through deep water. I pulled seat and carpet. The water is coming in from the dash/cowl area. A local shop cut into the cowl in order to seal everything. Got it back today and it is still leaking. The water is coming from where your right ankle would rest if sitting in the passenger seat. Has anyone had this problem or have any ideas.

The water is probably from the AC duct, clean the drain pipe located under the battery going through the firewall. I went crazy trying to find a "leak" too.
