I really don't understand what you are asking. Anti-freeze is leaking because you have a leak. But you already know that. If you are smelling coolant at the exhaust, then STOP driving this vehicle. You have a blown head gasket or a cracked head, or both. Serious engine damage will occur if you continue to drive it. Anti-Freeze smells sweet.
Probably a blown or leaking head gasket.
Failed gasket.
It sounds like the heater core is leaking. Check for the smell of antifreeze and that will confirm the bad heater core.

Most of the time it is because the water pump is going out and it is leaking where the pulley is on the engine.
the freeze plugs on the side of the motor could be done.

That's why is call a leak. Check all your coolant hoses, water pump, heater hoses, radiator, coolant reservoir, exec... Any freeze plugs exc. Could be your heater core is leaking. Let us know where you think the leak is coming from? Why do you think it is leaking. Do you smell antifreeze from the AC vents?
