sure you havent a split in your headers ,,bit hard to see.:wonder:

I'd guess you have an exhaust/Header leaking under there. Looks to be the same side as the up-pipe is connected.

definatly looks like you've split your headers as everyone is saying.
Fire in an engine bay is definatly not good!!

Going off what people have already said, the last thing on my mind would be lost power.

Get your headers replaced before you're looking at a burnt out wreck. Engine fires are very hard to put out.
