need help!

hey all, I've got a major problem. I went to go add motor oil to my car and antifreeze since they were both low today. However with the hood open, I started the car, then after a minute or so, my headers get EXTREMLY HOT and from the bottom of the header u can see like light smoke lifting! I don't know what's causing it! Are there any other fluids I should check? It's driving me insane!
