You have done some great detective work and localized most of your issues. The water running down over the window might be helped with a bead of clear caulk over the top and down the sides 1/2 way. In regards to the roof, anytime I have seen screws in that condition, it is caused by the rotten wood they are screwed into. I'd venture to guess that a good portion of the frame member running down the side of the camper is shot and needs to be replaced. Even sealing your leaks at this point will keep the moisture in that wood and it will continue to rot. I would pull the roof/wall apart, replace the wood, probably a 2x2, button it up, and finish by caulking and putting Eternabond tape along the entire edge. To be on the safe side, I'd put it around all the edges, seams, etc.
As far as the vents, I'd vote for caps. Theoretically any rain that falls in them make it's way to the tanks.
Good luck!
