I can't see the forest because there's a tree in my way.

Not factory.
Valet switch or similar for an aftermarket alarm? Follow the wires

So that's 0.21 amps or 210 milliamps....far too high, I'd expect to see under 30mA on an unmodified car.
I bet that much could drain even a fully charged battery in a week or less
If you think it's the alternator, simply disconnect it and see if amp draw drops top an acceptable level. (I seriously doubt alt is causing it)
Trunk light not stuck on? (fold the back seat down so you can look)
check key slots on both front door locks....if one is turned far enough away from vertical it could cause the multiplex system to 'stay awake' due to a lock switch input being on all the time
