Question What to do?

..ok....took my car in because I was smelling coolant, they did a pressure test on my cooling system and they found a leaky radiator hose and repaired it. Problem solved I thought. Now I think am smelling coolant coming out of my exhaust. Now I would have figured when they did the pressure test and the seals were leaking, they would have been able to determine it...right?? Or is it possible that when they did the pressure test, it maybe damaged a seal because I am sure I was not smelling it before? I also had them flush the radiator, it is possible there is just some spilled coolant somewhere and it is just burning off?

Now I did a lot of research before I purchased my FD about three years ago and have really babied the car. When I purchased the car, the engine had been replaced and it only has about 30,000 miles on the new engine. Do you think it is possible that the seals are bad, or are going bad?

Any insight would be appreciated.....thanks....
