HELP!! Dripping Noises...
 
OK I just got home about 5 mins ago, and popped the hood to check on the new CAI I just installed. The intake was looking great, but then I heard what sounded like a dripping noise. I located it, and it seems to be in the general area of the header/header cover. Not exactly sure where its coming from, but its definetly inside the block. Anywho, I figured that dripping noises arent usually good, so I came straight here to post. Is it just like oil dripping back down into the oil pan, or is it just the sound of the engine cooling down real fast? Or is there like something broken in there that I need to fix? Please Help!!!!

Oh yeah and by the way its a '97 Civic EX.

Nope i never drive with the AC on. I just roll down all the windows. Plus, why would the AC make a dripping noise come out of the engine block?

OK good. I hope you're right. Ive never heard this sound before, but then again this is the first time I've listened to the engine after driving it.

you sure it wasnt just the sound that the block makes as it is shrinking back down while cooling?
