3S-GTE USDM Turbo Engine T-Top Drain Tubes

Ok, my t-top drain tubes are leaking (poured water down them), so I need to replace them, but before I do, i need to know where they are routed to and if there is a plug or anything attached at the end(like a plug). The pictures have been removed from the sticky...so don't tell me to use the search function, because I already have.
Thanks

I don't think there's a plug or anything at the bottom end. The front ones just route down the a-pillar and into the fender area from what I remember. And I think the rear ones I think go out the little triangle side vents.

There is no place where the water can get to the exterior in the fender area, from what I've examined from my parts car. The only thing I've been able to see is that the tube dumps the water into the rocker, where it exits from the plug on the bottom near the front of the rocker. Does this sound correct?
