I second David's suggestion about the anti-run-on valve. I had a battery
drain that took about forever to find. It ended up being one of the
connectors on the oil pressure sensor, that goes to the anti-run-on
valve. It, being copper, apparently cold-worked from vibration and
cracked. It looked fine, but was VERY loose on the spade connector. In my
case I knew it was something to do with the anti run-on valve when, walking
by the car minutes after turing it off, I heard a series of clicks from the
front of the car. A new spade connector on the oil pressure sensor fixed
the drain.
