Let me share a story that happened to me and my Bullet trailer.
In a hurry I stored the trailer with a slight tilt from side to side.
The high side was the side where my big slide was.
Everything was closed up, all nice and tight, and I forgot about her while she slumbered.
We had a need to go inside her, I forgot why, but was surprised to see water very much like where you found yours.
I couldn't see anything obvious, but I did trace the "track" coming from higher up, and alongside the slide vertical trim.
I then gave thought to how here in the pacific Northwest we get a lot of rain, and it seeped in through the seal, and since the trailer wasn't level, it allowed the water to run inward, instead of over and out by the natural pitch they put onto of slides.
I releveled the trailer and took my time to get it right, and never had that issue again.
I didn't fix any seals, etc, that was all I did.
I think the flatter the roof might add to the problem in heavy rain, because those little gutters don't hold much water either and spill over, and they get debris in them as well, which then spills over the sidewalls above a slider.
That was a big factor why my new trailer has a barrel roof and larger gutters.
