strange tick, leak from manifold?? pic shown

ive had this weird ticking going on for awhile now i have a thread in the TPI section of the fourms with the details of it. but everyone said exhaust leak well i popped the hood and my manifold went from looking clean and nice to all gross and discolored and splotchy. could it be were its leaking and the sound is coming from??? the passenger side manifold is spotless and clean. the driver side looks terrible and the sound only comes from that side heres the pic
