   it can be just condensation and product of catalyst converter thats good news.
   it can be headgascet aswel thats bad news
   check if you got sludg under oil cap/ water in oil.
   is your cooling system presurising and bubling on acceleration( take cap of radiator to check)

   head gasket was done about 6mths ago and no mayo it doesnt overheat either ...just check the cooling its not bubbling but if i take cap off and rev the engine alittle water will overflow so hopefully it just condensation it abit embarrassing when you exhaust is bellowing white smoke for about 5 minutes
