If your talking about the cowl area, the houses the wiper assembly....there are two holes , on both sides, that you can feel, by putting your fingers underneath. The holes are over one inch in diameter. Kinda hard to get those blocked with anything.
If this is the same thing we're talking about.

There are drain holes on the firewall. One on each side I believe. On my car there is a piece of black hose with a 90* elbow that sticks out. On the end where the water drains, the hose narrows and this makes it easy for them to clog. They are tucked down in there a little. You really have to look for them. When they do clog the water will backup and leak into the passenger compartment.
You don’t need to remove anything to get to them.
