Could be leaking via the rear lights

i think that i have solved this problem if you open the filler cap you will see a drain hole for the over spill of fuel this pipe has some how become disconnected in the boot/trunk when it rains the water collects in the fuel filler cap and then makes it way in to the boot/trunk down this pipe I found this after dismantling all of the trim in the boot/trunk with the help of my son and the garden hose we found the problem i hope that this helps someone with the same problem and save them them some time
