did you remove the a/c up to the firewall, if so did you seal the holes with gromets? that could be where its coming from

take it to a mufler shop. you most likely have a exhaust leak. or little holes from rocks or rusted through on your cat. that or is your muffler all the way out the back of your back bumper or is in the bumper? behind it.

You shouldn't have any exhaust expelled into the engine compartment. I recommend that you look for an exhaust system leak, as already mentioned.
