I had something similar happen in a home I previously sold. There was a rubber seal or gasket around a pipe going out of the roof which was dry rotted and cracked. Allowed a very small amount of moisture to run down the pipe. Tricky part was that the gasket and the "leak spot" were actually about 6 feet apart so that had thrown me off. The angle of the pipe allowed it to travel quite a ways away.

Plumbing jack boot, the rubber ones last 7-10 years in South Louisiana. The lead ones work great unless you have squirrels around, then they eat the lead.
