Exclamation Infamous sunroof leak + broken sunroof

Hi all,

So i've got the infamous footwell flooding / A pillar leak / sunroof leak problem. Today I cleared out the drain pipe within the A pillar and in the hood at the windshield apron. I was still seeing water higher up above the headliner, which I mostly removed.

The problem is when I want to clear debris from the sunroof drain well. A few days ago, my sunroof seemed to be stuck closed. The motor still works (hearing clicking), but no movement from the roof. I removed the torx screws to remove the glass and see if i could clear the debris that way, but cant seem to find the drainage hole.

Two questions:
1. Is it possible to see the sunroof drain hole with it closed, but the glass off? Where is it?
2. How do I get the sunroof to open again with the motor? How do I know if the motor is stripped or off its tracks?

Thanks
-Tom
