Question Water coming out of tailpipe pipe and other problems

Just got my truck back yesterday from the exhaust shop. I got a new system from the manifolds all the way out the back, dual setup. Now on startup, alot of water will start to come from the tailpipe. Just droplets, but alot of them. And a little bit of white smoke...pretty faint. Not sure if I'm burning oil of it's just the vapor from the water. But it's definitely white in color, no matter how faint it is.

Also the fan shroud would rub against the blades (check my previous thread from yesterday), so we took that off completely for now. Need a new one anyway. When we did, we noticed coolant dripping from the engine. Turned on the engine and sure enough it was being flung from the pulley. So I guess my water pump decided to quit on me? Power steering pump is also leaking, so we'll replace both at the same time.

Could the two be related?

Thanks.


EDIT: I know it's normal for some water to come out....it's the byproduct of the process. But it just seemed like more than I've seen before.
