I have gas leaking out my exhaust pipe. It drove fine until the other day when I got an awful burning gas smell. I looked the car over and saw nothing except the exhaust pipe was still smoking a little as though the car was still on. I don't know what is wrong with it.

I believe it is engine oil being burnt and emitting the smoke and smell.

Most common cause of such problems are bad valve seals and engine should be consuming oil.

Remember to check your engine oil level.
