Commentary for Avodah Zarah 60:3
כותח הבבלי אין בו משום גילוי ובני גולה נהגו בו איסור אמר רב מנשי אי אית ביה נקורי חיישינן אמר רב חייא בר אשי אמר שמואל מי טיף טיף אין בו משום גילוי אמר רב אשי והוא דעביד טיף להדי טיף טיף
Babylonian kutah does not become prohibited by being left uncovered, but those in the Diaspora have a custom to prohibit it. R. Manashi said: If it has traces of biting we must suspect [it of being bitten by a snake]. R. Hiyya b. Ashi said in the name of Shmuel: Dripping water does not become prohibited by being left uncovered. R. Ashi said: That is if the dripping is continuous.
