I'm not sure where the moisture is coming from, I've been checking if from time to time when it rains and there isn't any water there at all. Edges of the pipe where it meets the wall seems like it's sealed well enough. From the rust marks it seems to be where seal around where turn meets the pipe. Is it possible the pipe is getting water in it itself?
