It's more often water getting in where the clips that hold the outer A-pillar trim go into the metalwork.
They should be intact and have a rubber seal on them but some windscreen replacements don't fit new trims and/or clips.
Try running water just over the scuttle and not any higher and see if you are still getting water ingress.
If not it'll almost certainly be the A-pillar trims. Black 05 TDV6 HSE Auto

Assuming it leaks though the scuttle how do you clean out the drain pipes

No idea. Sorry.
In my 9 or so years of D3 ownership the leaks have always been sunroof drains or A-pillar. Black 05 TDV6 HSE Auto
