just got car back from mechanics and had a rubber mount fit onto exhaust as 1 broke, anyways he said he had to bend something into place as a previous owner has bodged the exhaust back on to a certain extent. Now there seems be more liquid than ever dripping out it doesnt smell like petrol but who knows.
Adviice much appreciated as no one ever seems to give advice on here from my experience from other posts so please help me.
Cheers James

yes its water, which is a byproduct of combustion. It shouldn't do it when the engine has been running for a while (like 20 minutes or so) as by that point the exhaust has heated up enough to evaporate any condensation before it reaches the exhaust tip.
Thats why exhausts generally rot from the inside out - condensation :)
