Sorry but this is another request for help.

I had a leak in the driver foot well soon after buying the car and managed to sort it out with a bit sealant.

A year later and the leak has returned and I just can't find where the water is getting in.
I have sealed and resealed the brake reservoir, clutch cylinder cover, accelerator cable, vacuum hoses, various mounting bolts and rivets etc.

The water seems to be running down the bulkhead directly behind the brake pedal, but the master cylinder mounting plate obscures exactly where it's coming from.

Does anyone have any idea where else it could be coming from?

thanks in advance

Have you tried lying in the footwell in the dark and having someone shine a light over the bulkhead from the engine bay?
