So! The soup thickens a bit...

The shop did a full inspection again and says that the VCG is intact. They're of the opinion that the front crankshaft gasket is leaking and that is causing it. Could that be it?
Could a little drip from that gasket be heated by the radiator (or something else hot in that area) be causing the fumes?

Its a $300 repair but since I already paid these guys $300 for the clamp on the exhaust, I don't know if I trust their analysis. There generally trustworthy and also listed through the list provided by pungo above.
