Check coolant level, may have a heater core leak, but it might have smelled so. Hopefully it just the A/C drain hose came loose from air duck box. Its just getting wet on the passenger side right? Although I'm not sure what side that is for you mates.

its dripping water from the black foot vents (aircon/blower) exits in each footwell seems to be coming from behind the dash?

The A/C build condensation on the evaporator, this water is drained from the A/C evaporator box (likes like a black box) to the outside of car (usually though the firewall or floor). I've never worked on a Ford KA, so I have no idea what it looks like. Some Euro cars have the evap in the center of dash with drain hose going to floor. Sorry can't help anymore then that. Maybe a pic of car in, out and under dash
