stinky headers?

well my car doesnt overheat and doesnt seem to be leaking coolant asked my mechanic what it could be and he said it may be the anti freeze that was spilt on my headers when we changed the Tbelt. he said that anything spilt on the headers will smell like that for months like if you piss on someones harley exuast it will smell like piss for a long ass time. you guys think that might be the case or what else you think it might be?
thanks

Re: stinky headers?

Probably normal. Same with WD40, grease, etc. Takes some time to burn off. Turbo cars get the manifold MUCH hotter, so it doesnt take as long as a NT might.
