What you will find day after day is that it becomes more metalic to answer your question - its coming from your cat or at least thats my understanding the "filter" so to say has lost its structure and is being pushed through ur exhaust.... recomened take off the cat either gut it cause u already have a 5 litre or replace and get the exhaust looked at so it doesnt get block up... and no a no ones playing a trick on u Some original photos have not been recovered yet.

lol 100% a wig mate. if it was bits from the car converter it would come out in lil chunks and your cat would be rattling. *@%^*@%^*@%^ good prank though, certainly getting good value haha
