Water under front hood / Headlight Seal Q

[mcomet]

Two q's...

1. I notice when I wash my car I pop open the front trunk there is a significant pool of water on the passenger side on the black plastic area. This is the area to the passenger side of the battery cover beyond the holes. I am worried about water pooling up and then going into the electrical components there.

Anyhow is this normal? I haven't really noticed any gaskets issues or such... I always dry it up..

2. My headlights have the thin black gasket seal around the top part of the lights...however I noticed the bottom half of my lights don't have any seal..and there's a 0.5cm or so gap there... am I missing a seal there?

This is on a 2003 S.

thanks,
