Default stuff dripping from h pipe

I staarted my car and back it out of my garage and left it running a minute, When i turned it off i see what looked like water dripping from where my h -pipe connects tp my catback. Is that normal or could this be why my car sounds like it has an exhaust leak. But im almost positive the leak sound is coming from the header.?

Go under and make sure everything is nice and tight and seated properly.

NO No No NO N o they are all wrong . are you running your air conditioner ? If so it's condensation from your evaporator dripping onto your exhaust and it won't hurt anything .

If its where the headers attach to the midpipe, it could be the evaporator. If it's back at the midpipe like he said, it's probablya 'small' leak.
