That's what I was thinking about. You may want to crawl up in your attic and look for water stains. I'd expect that your soffit wasn't designed to have a water barrier like plywood in that space. I'd bet the original material was supposed to be well ventilated. Perforated aluminum would seem to be the way to go, but this is without seeing your house.
