When the original glazing or weatherstripping separated from the window enough to let water in it apparently began to swell the wood behind the outer sandwich and it eventually go to a point we noticed on heavy NE rain storms with wind, we were getting water inside on the floor and then stains on two ceilings below. I'm inclined to glaze after drying it out well and hope we get some time, as we are considering downsizing in the next couple years and selling.

Well, if that is the course you want to take, you might as well take it off the hinges and drill holes from the bottom. This will allow gravity to be working with you, similar to getting water out of a Whaler hull full of foam. I will try to price a replacement panel if I remember when I am at lumber yard.

It's on the full height 25" glass panel on one side (one each side) of the inswing door (without issues), so nothing to remove and that job would be above my skill set.
