It's obvious your alternator is not charging and the white wire is getting voltage from the battery in key off.
Replaced the new alternator and got these.
Key off
Big red. 13.11--OK Battery voltage
Lil red 0---should be 13.1
White 13.1--should be zero
The lil re and white appear to be reversed
Key on
Big red 12.69
Lil red 12.05
White 12.65
Same here
Running
Big red 14.6
Lil red 13.5
White 14.6
Same here the lil red and big red should be the same and the white should be a little less.
Lights on running
Big red 12.4
Lil red 11.3
White 12.25
Even with the alternator removed and all the under dash fuses removed I still had the light on for my drain test. I could also notice the battery draining when not on the trickle charger just watching the multi meter.

You need to go back and look at post 2 and pull that adapter and see if the drain stops. Then check the brown wire on the regulator plug for the key off volts of zero and key on volts of 8,2 plus.
The little red wire should always be the same as the battery voltage. I'm puzzled why you got zero on it at some points unless you pulled the jumper plug when you checked it.
When you disconnected the alternator wires and the drain stayed it might be because the red wire in the regulator plug was jumping to the brown wire and feeding the key switch and the ignition wire. Have you had any problems with the engine running after you turned the key off?
