Or do I need to remove the "tray" that is under the cover in the picture?
If I am better off posting elsewhere for advice then I will, of course.

No - they are drains, but they only allow drainage of some of the water, higher up.
You cannot see the drains, they are too deep below. One O/S is buried under the brake unit, which itself is under a clip on plastic cover. The N/S is visible, but only after the cover is removed and peering past the heater pollen filter - that will be wrecked as well.
Both become completely blocked by leaves and debris needing to be checked and cleared regularly, to prevent problems. Even more of a problem for a diesel, because the engine ECU is in the N/S plenum. They especially need to be frequently checked at this time of year, when all the leaves are falling..
