Default Mysterious water leak

I have noticed that after driving my car for a long period of time that water will drip onto the collector of my passenger side header. It seems clearish and does not smell of antifreeze, when i let it pool in my hand. Its not a crazy amount, but it is noticeable. Its usually "warm" not hot, or enough to make you wince when it falls in your hand. Maybe this is where the air conditioner drips, but I have never noticed it being in this spot before. Or heard it sizzling when it hits my header? I always seemed to think that the AC dripped a little further up. And the time that I checked this, my defroster was on, but on the heat setting, so I didnt think AC was involved?

Sounds like the a/c condensor drain. Most cars drain in that area. As long as its doesn't smells like antifreeze and not on your passenger floorboard your good.
