I've had a few exhaust systems do that when I first install them, I've always been told that it was the grease from your hands, and chemical treating they use on the pipe burning off

What kind of car?
Most exhaust parts/systems have a coating/film/oil on them and it will take a bit to burn off. I wouldnt worry about it if NOTHING else was changed during the swap, its just that crap burning off.
