I was leaning toward water pump until I read this. You say "Everything gets wet" which makes me thing a pin hole leak in a hose.
Either way you need to get her good and hot the get in there with a mirror or whatever it takes to see the origin first hand.

I bought an inspection camera from Harbor Freight for just this kind of thing. It has a 1/2in flexible cable with a 1/2in camera integrated on the end. You can get down into crevices to see stuff. At 20% off of the sale price of $69 it was a good investment.
