Muffler drip...is this anything to be concerned about??

Noticed my muffler dripping from the side housing...not the pipe. Is this anything to be concerned about??

Here are a few examples. Couldn't upload the video via mobile

Nope, just water from condensation.... Very normal

Now if it smells like antifreeze it could be a sign of a blown head gasket, but I don't think that's what you have by looking at the pictures.

Edit to add, many mufflers have drains designed into them to help the condensation drain. But it is possible the muffler has a small hole as well. Still I wouldn't worry about it.

Just water from the combustion process also shows your cats are working properly. It's normal and it being from the side I know many mufflers are designed with a tiny hole to let the water out and keep it from sitting in the muffler and rusting it.

Your muffler bearings may be dry though.
