Check window and sunroof seals (or was one left partially open?) first before thinking of engine compartment problems.  To have the passenger footwell flooded to the extent you suggest means a sizable opening for rain water has ingressed.

However, on the mechanical front, have you started the car?  Is the demister/ blowers all working ok?  Does the windscreen mistup?  Your heater matrix could have split and emptied water into the compartment. :(
