Default possible exhaust manifold leak?

Don't know for sure but im hoping its a leak before something internal, especially on the bottom end.

underneath you hear it best, and it sounds like fuel injectors, or like a deisel at idle, but not near as loud, unless you get really close to it. opinions?

*edit: car has 73,000 miles, and whats listed beneath*

If it gets louder when you rev it, then yeah that could be it. That's what I got with mine at about the same mileage too. Cracked manifold. $330

It kinda sounded almost like a go cart or dirtbike.

tighten up all your H pipe connections first and make sure none of those have settled
