Its the paint on the backbox burning off, it sometimes gives a smoke too, dont worry about it, it'll go as soon as it came

there may be too much hermalite(or similar product) left around the join after attaching the box. if its the same after a few days may be worth checking out further.
oh and good choice of exhaust
