Going way back to Grade 11 chemistry,
One of the by-products of combustion is H20 (water)
That's why you can see a car's exhaust when it's cold outside.
Perfectly normal....

Now a ton of steam coming out the exhaust, that's usually an indication of a blown head gasket, cracked head or block.

It is probably a gallon on liquid H20 but it is in more of a gas form. Then there is some that exits the exhaust in liquid form. The combustion process that occurs in all vehicles naturally releases H2O.

As long as the head light fluid doesnt go dry you have nothing to worry about.
