A Correct answer
Explanation

Present simple tense is used for habitual or repeated actions. 'Whenever it rains' indicates a recurring condition, so we use present simple 'leaks' to show what happens each time it rains. Option D 'could leaks' is grammatically incorrect - modal verbs are followed by the base form, not 's' form.
