Hehr Window I believe.
I have replaced the seals on quite a few of these. They do not need to shrink or dry up very much before they leak.
There is two different seals. The seal for the slider and fixed windows are a different size.
You do not need to remove the window to replace this outer seal. The slider windows are more prone to leak. I have found that when the fixed window seal leaks and gets through it is because the glass glue has broken loose otherwise it would not get through. If that is the case you need to have a mobile glass company come out or remove the window to bring it in for new glue.

Thanks forumcoach. You believe a mobile glass company can execute the repair without removing the entire window? That would be the ticket for me. Would you believe any mobile glass company or one that specializes in RV windows?
So after pondering this over night I have to ask, are the seal and frame of the fixed window not water tight at the bottom? The water is not getting to the inside (sans a very small amount) and if it was would it not find its way to the weep holes and out? Still a little confused.
