Rear Sunroof Drains Location? C Pillar Leakage

Hello. I have a leakage on my C Pillars and I am trying to diagnose it. I know the sunroof has rear drains, but I can't for the life of me see them with the sunroof either opened or propped up. If anyone has a diagram or location of the exit (near the wheel well) that would be awesome too.

In the event that this is not the cause of the leak, does anyone else have this similar issue? The water runs down the interior metal body of the car where my rear door open/close sensor is and causes it to short, setting off the alarm because the car thinks the door is open. I know its an interior leak because both rear C-Pillars are stained with water damage (newish headliner). However I have never noticed any further leaking into the anywhere else in the car. Thanks in advance.

Hope this helps you find the rear drains - also you may want to check under the strip that runs from the windshield to the trunk if the body seam has a hole/rust causing water intrusion.
