Try replacing the o-ring inside the pipe, that seals the pipe to the cylinder. That should fix it.

The pipes are new

Did you install the pipes yourself? Did you put the o-rings in the pipes before installing them? Every Banshee pipe I've used, requires the o-rings to be taken out of the old pipes, and put in the new pipes, before installing the pipes.

If it's leaking out the front, where the exhaust hooks up, then it has to be the o-ring. The left crank seal going bad, will usually cause an air leak, and lean condition. The right crank seal going bad, will usually cause trans fluid to be drawn into the right cylinder, and burned, causing excessive smoking out of the right silencer. Is there any oil on the bottom side of the pipe, where it hooks to the cylinder? I had a minor groove in the spout, where the pipe hooks on, and I had to fill it with some epoxy, before the o-ring would seal.
