Charlie,
My 72 developed leaks when the air intake in front of the windscreen filled
with leaves and junk. This prevents rain from passing through to the ground
and leaks through to your leg by way of the air intake tubes. All you need
to do is to crawl under the car and clear the bulb that is attached to the
tube that drains the air intake vent. The hole in the vent is on the
passenger side of the vent on LHD cars. For a quick fix (don't want to get
under the car) you can siphon the collected water out of the air intake vent
with a 3/8" or so plastic hose.
I picked up a magnetic vent seal (for lack of a better term) to place over
the air vent when the car sits in the rain. It prevents rain and leaves and
such from collecting in the vent area. It's done a great job.

Ok here is the problem, The MGB is leaking profusely but only in one spot
the water seems to run down the back of the dash and drip down on to my leg.
It drips down from the place in the dash where the steering wheel comes
though. Any thoughts as to where the water is leaking in from and working
its way down?
