On Skylark, a 1973 P36-1, the toe rails were attached with wood screws to the deck and bedded with silicone. By the time, the boat came to me, the silicone was failing and when I set out across the Atlantic in 2009, water would be trapped on deck behind the toerail, seep down through the 100 screw holes, soaking the lower bench mattresses in the cabin.
The toerail had been oversanded, bungs were missing and I wound
up replacing all the toe rail. I had a cabinet maker shape the
teak and then I bedded it with Sikaflex and through bolted it with
machine screws.
At this time, Skylark has ONE leak around one of the portlights and as the portlight lens and frame are not leaking, I suspect that the leak is migrating between the deck and the overhead of the cabin liner. The chase continues...

Sorry for the delay. Underneath the toe rail is an aluminum strip so we can’t see the screws for a photo for you!
Sorry!
I hope you have some resolution
