Expanding foam absorbs water like a sponge. It will mold and you'll never get it dry (flex seal won't keep the water out indefinitely, either). Then your car will really stink.

The best tried and true preventative measures are to check your drains once per year (more often if you park outside) and to put the immobilizer in a sealed container.
Always have a backup.
