exhaust manifold/thermal reactor

so i took the rx out for a while yesterday and ran some errands and had a blast just driving it. felt great to hear the beast up and running.....and i turned some heads too =)

anywho, when i parked it, i noticed smoke coming from under my hood. i popped the hood and found that the smoke was coming from under the heat shield around my thermal reactor/exhaust manifold (im not sure which one it is). anyone have any suggestions as to why it might be smoking? its not "BAD" but it is noticeable. its an 83 gs bone stock
