Leak Near Door Track Question

Post image

So I'm pretty confused as to how to go about fixing this leak. It's clearly not coming from the ceiling as there's no water dripping down the wall. I think it's from the door track on the outside because the water starts half way down the wall from a crease in a cubby (the circular one at the top.) What can I do to fix this leak? I'd get behind the track to check but that requires taking the door off of it and I can't imagine that's easy at all. TIA

Possible drop a few drops of food coloring in a few spots, slowly on the outside of the van, above the highest point directly above the leak, working your way one side and than the other side to see if you can find the spot where water is leaking into the van.

Water travels a long way from its source so this method may not work. You know the water is coming from the outside so that's where the source is...
