I think he means that its leaking from a spot on the header. Did u happen to bottom out your car or something? or maybe the welds may have cracked open.

it sounds fine.... and previously it did crack at the weld. at that time i took it to a welder and he welded it back up and put a flex pipe on. everything ran fine and is running fine to this day. but the problem is. i never looked under my car till yesterday. i saw that there were air moving all under the header. maybe about an inch thick. i started to wonder if that was normal or if its something i need to fix.
