1) More than likely just backed up water. Can flood the whole right side
of the car when really bad and when it rains hard.
2) Smaller hose drains a tray installed under the evaporator to collect
any condensation drippings. Rarely a problem.

3) Part of any service at my shop. I have installed screen wire over the
opening before, using body 'bondo' to hold it on three sides and a clip
on the fourth to allow access. A little care every now and then keeps it
clear without the screen though.
