The problem isn't with the wrap trapping moisture. Without the surounding air available to disapate the heat from the exhaust, the header temp itself runs much higher. The oxygen in the atmosphere still comes in contact with the now hotter metal, and will greatly increase the rate of oxidation (deterioration) of the metal (same principle behind the cutting torch). I had a header go bad in one season from wrapping it.
