Continued leak...

I'm still having issues with a leaking front passenger side. It seems to ONLY be coming from here (see video)
I have reinstalled the A Pillar trim with new clips and RTV.
It is not the cowl.
It's not the sunroof drain tube.
It seems there is a continuous slow drip even though it stopped raining hours ago.
See:
.
to watch the water trickle down from somewhere....
What would make sense for it leaking there? Only this location?
Any thoughts?

Did you break the pin(s) off the exterior a-pillar trim and cover the holes?
Did you seal the cowl and put a deflector over the intake?
FYI, you can pull the glove box and the cabin filter. Then you can pretty much see right up to the cowl and see if water is getting in that way. The other possibility is the sunroof tubes are leaking up top, but that would imply clogged drains. But they can leak up there and then water travels around the headliner and down the interior a-pillar trims.

So I am checking the tubes again, but ran weed whipper line down to see. They both appear unblocked.
I am concerned:
1) This is not a "pour water and see it come through" kind of leak. IT's like it's filling up somewhere then spilling over - either when full or moved. I took it out today and turned left and then right and heard a faint "running water" sound. I couldn't tell if it's above me or in front (ie. bulkhead). I've even run a hose over the roof and there is NO immediate leak.
2) where could water be pooling? is there an empty cavity that may be behind the bulkhead that I'm not thinking of that may be the culprit?

I never had much luck with the hose method when finding me, even though it was the cowl. I could tell I had a leak but the gardenhose revealed nothing.
I really can think of any location that would pool water beside the sunroof. Just for the heck of it, you can seal off the sunroof with tape and see if it does anything.
