Is this normal, or do I have an exhaust leak?

I recently installed the AMP Power Steps on my Ranger, and wanted to share a little video of them in action for anyone here who is interested. In reviewing the footage prior to posting it here, I noticed that there appears to be water coming out of the rear of my muffler, near where it joins the tail pipe. The engine was cold, and this is at idle.

Is this normal?

I expect to see water coming out of the tail pipe, but not the muffler itself....



I know it's a little hard to see - if you watch at full screen it's better. Look right at the rear passenger tire, and you'll see it. I'll try to get better pictures / video of this from a better angle later today after work.

No worries, that hole is intentional. Lets moisture drain from the muffler so it doesn't get trapped in there and corrode things.
