I had an exhaust leak on my wagon that got sucked into the car everytime I opened a window or the sunroof. It was the same location, front of the front muffler. The smell though was exhaust, not burning oil. You may also have a drip from the tranny or turbo that is hitting the exhaust and burning so it's not oily looking. You can usually see the residue of burned oil if you look carefully enough.
