exhaust flange leaking water

I notice when I start my car, I get a small puddle of water and the flange/gasket on the L side of the car. Is this normal? It doesn't sound like I have a leak at all.

Its very normal.

Almost any exhaust will do this. It only takes a pinhole leak to do it.

Water production is a normal part of the combustion process. The water vapor will condense out of the exhaust gas when the carss exhaust system is cold.
