Trunk Leak Frustration

I just recently bought a 1990 Oldsmobile 98, and have had an issues with a trunk leak near the passenger side trunk hinge, I have replaced the weatherstripping and have done everything I could think of to no avail, any help would be appreciated.

Is it the trunk or rear window that's leaking? Did you add that RTV sealing compound?

I'm not really sure, could very well be the window, but it's only leaking on the passenger side and only into the trunk. and yup I added that, ended up ripping it back out as it still didn't stop the leak.

Here is the corner where it is leaking and the piece it is leaking from.

I recommend removing the rear seat and package tray. Getting a closer look at that window seal could give you a better idea of where it's leaking.
