Went with black RTV, it's probably still curing as I just finished it yesterday evening but it wasn't necessarily too difficult. Just hoping that it seals up tight. If I have to redo it, so be it. Wish I could've removed to hood for better access but alas, no help was available. Gonna run a pitcher of water over it tomorrow to test it out.

This stuff works great. Scrape out the old foam and adhesive. Clean plastic channel with alcohol. Stick this in the channel with the seam toward the engine bay (so water sheds out and down). When you bolt the panel back in, it compresses nicely. Fits perfectly, works great, easily removable/reusable, no mess.

it comes from under the hood, passenger side cowl. take off the cowl cover, there is a plastic box with a screen on top. the gasket under that degrades, hence the leak. pull box, clean off old gasket on fire wall and plastic box, used black gasket material, apply to both parts generously, reinstall. leak fixed. there are videos on you tube about this, affect all town cars, 1997 to 2011

If your driver side is leaking water, take the wiper transmission cowl off, clean the bottom of it, and stick this weather-stripping to it in a continuous run like the photo shows. No more driver side leak.
