mine did that smell thing for awhile (i ignored it, bad idea ) and then the little plastic elbow on the intake exploded, so i changed that out and the water pump, and pressure wash my engine and surrounding area... but that was just my experince....

I will check the throttle body area again when my wife gets home. I have looked over my entire coolant system with a fine tooth comb and never could find the leak. Maybe the TB is in fact slightly oozing. :?
My coolant by-pass elbow is only 70,000 miles old. Same with the heater core.
