What I think is that you should run org-lint on your document. It will say 
something like this (but with different line numbers):

  Line Trust Warning
     2 low   Forbidden combination in header ":results": raw, drawer
    12 low   Forbidden combination in header ":results": raw, drawer
    17 low   Possible incomplete drawer ":RESULTS:"

The last one should catch your eye.

If you want to generate results that have lines that start with `*' you 
need to protect them. A good way to do this is to wrap them in a src block 
or export block like this:

#+BEGIN_SRC emacs-lisp :exports results :wrap export latex
(format "* Test2")
#+END_SRC

HTH,
