Can someone help ID what this is? I was under the impression this whole time it's stock but I cannot find any OEM pictures of midpipes that match. Tried to get the best pictures but it's hard with barely any room!
I guess I don't understand. Does the car have headers or axle back exhaust? I seriosly doubt someone would replace the midpipe without doing headers or axle back or both. Just curious, why are you worried about whether the midpipe is stock or not?

Stock headers and Corsa sport mufflers. I thought the midpipe had an H pipe and if it was an X it looked like the below. This almost looks aftermarket. Maybe it was another version of the stock midpipe I wasn't aware of either.
almost looks like someone just took the h pipe and had an X welded in but who knows.
Attached are what base X-pipes should look like. Neither of my C6's ('08 and '12) have discoloration like yours does. which makes me think yours might have been added for some reason. Or, possibly, high heat and lots of moisture caused yours to discolor, nothing to really worry about, unless you want precisely stock parts.
The pipes on the left are from an '08. The ones are the right are from the '12
The '08 are spread 1 1/4" wider at the exit, and flared out more. The '12 pipes have two non-metered cats. Both are perfectly stock.
