How to determine whether the superheated steam tubes in the convection section of a heating furnace are perforated?

The heating furnace experienced water flowing at the bottom of the chimney during winter; it was initially thought to be condensate water from the flue gases, but the amount of water was quite large. How can we determine whether this is caused by steam tube rupture due to overheating in the convection section?
It turns out that this kind of situation used to occur here as well; it was thought to be due to a high hydrogen content from thermal decomposition. Now, a new approach has been proposed
