Depends on how humid it is out side. Usually drips around 10-15min if it humid.

I hope you weren't looking to find the drain utter anywhere near your passenger's head!

Does Battery have to come out to get to plug or do you suggest access from underneath or a lift ? I had car running with AC on for about 10 Min, quite distubered no water dripping. About how long should it take for a dripping ? Thanks again everyone has been super but just paid $600 for fan and relay, did not know if mechanic cleaned drain pipe

If it is plugged, it won't be dripping, that is the problem.
Don't take the battery out. Put the car up on jack stands and remove the elbow from underneath. Clean it and put it back. Easily done.

After removing the old blower, I have no doubt the mechanic reached up into the hole to check for, and remove, any debris (dirt/mouse nests/dust bunnies/pollen, etc) that can block water drainage before slapping the new blower in place.

REALLY, no DOUBT. Measure twice-cut once. Check it yourself.
