Small hole in exhaust

[peanut]

It was above 50 today so I took the bike out. While coaxing it to start I noticed movement from under the bike. Ends up there is a small hole in the exhaust. I smelled it and put a finger in it, seemed like water. I figured it wouldn't damage the bike and went for my ride. When I got back home I noticed there were 2 puddles on the ground. The spray was pretty large at first, so I think it hit the back tire and dripped down.

After doing some searching, people seem to say just patch or replace it. Seems like an odd spot for a hole though. Is the interior of the pipe compromised? Anyone had this happen before?

That is the condensate drain hole for the exhaust. Do not patch or fill it. It is OEM.
