By the time you see it on the inside, it's probably been leaking for awhile to have soaked thru.. So, roof line and probably forward and back from where you see it in the pic.. You could try to "seal" the outside, but damage is probably already done.. Without seeing it, no way to tell for sure, but that's my initial gut feeling by just the pics. Good luck!

Yes, the AC leaking could do that too.. I missed that.. Good catch johnhicks! Still.. Depending on how long it's been leaking, could be more damage that just has not shown itself yet? It would be a good idea to pull the AC unit and inspect further from there... Seal is just a gasket and you'd have to remove the unit to do that anyway. Not hard, per se... But a couple person job I'd say.
