People have used a variety of sealants, tbh i really can't see what difference they will make.
As long as it "sets" you'll be fine.

Any bathroom sealant if any :)

got anywhere you could move it to for a while to let it set? get a hairdrier on it to keep the water away for a while? cleaned out the holes at the bottom of the door seal to make sure the waters free to escape out the bottom?

have you tried an extra layer of sealant on the outside of the ancillary panels where its still coming through?

maybe with it taking so long to set the water had already cut a gap to travel through? id suggest even more sealant, feel along the original sealant for damp parts or trails of moisture etc to see where its coming through, bang a **** load extra on there and hairdrier to get the temperature up a bit to set quicker?
