After running it with top removed for visibility, it appears that water pools up in the little channels on the rear of the plastic tub cover and during agitation they overflow and water runs down exterior on tub rear. Have had seal off and back on again - pretty sure nothing is leaking past it How are those channels supposed to work?

It will either be the center seal or the hose. In rare occasions with a machine as hold as yours it can be a cracked tub, so check that too.
