Whenever my car gets warm, there is a real strong smell of burning antifreeze, I cannot find any leaks on the radiator, hoses etc. Oil does not look like it has water in it. Is this an intake manifold problem? the car has 106XXX miles on it

It very well could be an intake gasket issue. Do you see white smoke coming from the exhaust or smell antifreeze from the exhaust? If so you probably have a bad head gasket. I would check around the intake manifold for pooling as that is a good indicator where the leak may be.
