nothing. It means the metal is cold and the hot exhaust is warming the water vapor in the air..... condensating on the cold part and coming out the gap between your header and the exhaust housing..... Are you running a gasket.... i am assuming no. I am also assuming once warmed up you don't see the dripping.
