Pretty sure the engine beds for the 42 are bullheaded to not allow fluids in or out. The purpose being to contain and oil or fuel under the engines. If so your water source is limited to whatever means of access are available. Certainly if your FW system was leaking and making its way under the engines could explain it. Leaking shaft seals can also accumulate. Doubt if your AC condensate drains into that space.
