Your best bet is to sit in the car whilst someone gently hoses the areas where you suspect water may be getting in. This should show up your issue.

Most likely rear window, if it lands on the shelf. You really need to dry it off, and get an assistant to direct a hose over various areas around the window while you observe for fresh leakage. It is possible that the metalwork under the rubber seal is corroded and will need welding, but it may have not got that bad yet. Once you are sure that the leak is in the window seal, the window needs to come out for examination, and if there are early signs of rust deal with them properly before putting it back in with a new rubber.
