Default Leak from rollbar?

I have a camping top on my 2012 JKUR. The way it attaches to the jeep is a bolt through front roll bar hole. When it rains I get a leak down the bolt, looking above the roll bar I don't see any water. After troubleshooting all the possible leak locations from the jeep leak manual I am pretty sure that water is getting in the roll bar and then traveling to the bolt and down. I can't take the top off very easily so is there any way someone can look at roll bar and see where it would be possible for water to enter the driver side roll bar? I think it is entering from b pillar and coming forward, but that is purely speculation. Thanks for the help.

Not sure about the leak man sorry. I've never seen that top in my life. Crazy. Looks ridiculously expensive to be able to stand up in the back of your jeep
