So do you think It is the door drain holes? I'll remove them later.

Will that colored insulation be wet if its the cowl water leak?

Thanks!

Back up in your driveway from now on and see if the rear is still getting wet...
If it's not, then you know it was those damn plugs.
If it's still wet, I just don't have any answer for you. Sorry.

if it is the cowl problem, will the insulation on the firewall always have to be wet?

I'd say most likely since the firewall is right below the cowl...
