Fresh Air Intake or Cowl Drain?

Under the instrument panel, at the extreme ends, there are tubes pointing down from the top. It looks like these are either drains for the cowl/winshield washer area, or places where you can get forced fresh air. Can anybody confirm either? Apparently, for fresh air, you would only have to run a hose down to the air ducts in the dash. You could also use these for drains, instead of letting the water drain into the area under the fender, which seems to be a really bad idea, since there's not much metal protection there.

The tubes at each end are water drains: a rubber elbow at each end diverts the H20 outside the car. There is a fairly large retangular "covered" intake on the passenger side that is an outside air source for the heater. I'm sure someone has tapped into this source of air...probably by punching through the firewall.
