Is that *really* what it did?

When I run your example, I get:

#+RESULTS:
: * Hello

and this exports (with the `:exports results' header) to html wrapped 
in a <pre class="example"> container:

<pre class="example">
* Hello
</pre>

using Org 9.0.5.

Without that header the src code gets wrapped in a <pre> container.

So there must be something in/about your setup you haven't mentioned.

HTH,
