Is this a exhaust leak?

Hello all. I am writing looking for input on a exhaust problem with my 95 Z28.

The only mod I have is a Borla cat-back. The rest is the stock exhaust system. Recently I do have some ticking when I start it up that is coming from somwhere between the passenger side manifold and cat. converter.

My cat is noticebly hanging lower under my car by easily 3" and when I rev it up with the door open, I can hear a dune buggy exhaust sound and on occasion a backfire upon restarting from that same area.

Thanks for the help and input.

Sounds like it, but crawl up under there and see if something is loose. An exhaust shop also has a tool that can detect exhaust leaks.
