Does anybody have photos - cut-a-ways if you will - of the whole cowl/rocker drainage path?
front clip is off, and the lower cowl area is surprisingly clean, just a couple smallish holes. obviously, if hit with a sandblaster that holes would increase in size and #, LOL. i'm going to try and treat what i can see/get to, then slop in some POR15 type stuff from inside the car where the kickpanels go, but, i dont want to slop over holes that are supposed to be there.... i kinda get the gist that water drains like this - up top at the cowl screen -> down either side to the lower reaches of the outer cowl -> down the rocker panel to the drain holes in front of the rear tires. what i dont know is what kind of hole is between the lower cowl and rocker, where that hole is exactly, if there are any other drain holes or passage holes up by the lower cowl. thanks

They should run out on the front door side of the front fenders, 68 right?

The path can be reached behind the kick panels of the interior. You'll have to remove the oval shaped steel plate that's behind the kick panel. Kind of tricky to reach but you'll find it.

first vacuum out behind the kick panels as best you can. then run the garden house down there and you'll be amazed what comes out!! Dry it with a hair dryer

That's what I did. In fact, since I was repairing some rust near the rear end of the rocker, I just cut an opening there. I never would have gotten all that crap out of the factory drain hole. Lots of pinestraw and decomposed leaves that had rotted to compost.
