After battling an obvious water leak from the attic - what I thought was a plumbing vent cap leak - for longer than I care to mention, I finally found the culprit was a PVC condensate drain line that ran right over the same location of the "water leak." Some *&^^%* had cut through the top half of the pipe about 3 inches too short, decided to leave the partially cut section in, and connected a 90 elbow to redirect the pipe down a service column in the framing. In periods of high AC usage, the water level reached the saw cut slot and dripped over the pipe. Took me about 10 minutes to cut the damaged pipe out and replace the section with a few couplings. It was hot - but did it first thing in the AM so it wasn't too bad.
