It just depends on why your siding is leaking.

If it's leaking as the result of a covered peril, fire, wind or hail damage, a tree fell on it, then it would be covered subject to your deductible.

If the siding is just old, worn out or of poor workmanship then it is not covered, it would be an owners maintenance issue.

Would homeowners insurance cover damage from a leaking gutter that damaged an enclosed porch ceiling and items on the porch?

No. Homeowners insurance is probably the best bargain in insurance by offering a great deal of coverages for a surprisingly small premium. The situation you are describing is not an insurance matter but a maintenance issue. It is not made to cover maintenance of the home but covers accidents that are "sudden and accidental". Homeowners insurance covers incidents that are caused by a covered cause such as theft, fire, lightning, windstorm, vandalism, weight of ice and snow, and many others. Things that happen over a long period of time are maintenance and are therefore not sudden or accidental and are not covered. An example would be a leaking roof caused by condensation from the A/C is not covered but if a storm caused a tree limb to fall on the roof poking a hole and causing a leak then damage would be covered.
