Default major problem with headers

Today, driving all the sudden i see a VERY LOUD vibration noise from the top of my car where sunroof is, so i was like wats goin on, all the sudden cars very vibraty. this has been getting worst and worst from time to time, i notice the car is making a lil rattly clicking noise from the front hood/fender. so i take a look underneath the headers seems to me that its leaking from the headers connecting to the downpipe, wat can this be, im using stock gaskets...

Seems like an exhaust leak.

It could be. Take it to a muffler shop and have them take a look at it.

No major problem but it could attract unwanted attention from cops. I would guess that it should not be more than a ~$25 fix.

$25 is no problem for me, but more than that will honestly be a bust, other than that i wont get any attention from cops, its not THAT loud, just a lil bit, mainly rattles interior wise, just a ton of vibration.
