Lol, I meant it has to be at the front of the system, rules out the majority of the exhaust!
Really it can only be the exhaust mani gasket or the cat gasket for an exhaust leak that end.
But it could also be a hot oil smell from the breather as suggested above.

have you replaced the wire ring gasket inbetween the downpipe and the cat section? when they compress over time they can leak a bit, the mani/downpipe joint can leak some too, other than that you may have a crack in a pipe somewhere

Check the bonnet to scuttle panel seal, if missing it can put fumes into cabin.
