 Roof leak at P-vent and some IR pics

One bad thing about multilayered shingle roofs is that moisture becomes trapped between the layers and rots everything from the decking on up.

A couple of more points.
I didn't need IR to find this leak, just rain. I knew pretty much what to expect when I saw the leak in the crawlspace. But what does bother me is how many times I may have missed this in the summer time. A leak like this could go on for years before anyone notices, and with two shingle layers or more how do you know if the stains are old or new?
IR is fun in the winter rainy months, but it's about useless in the summer months for this kind of problem.
