RE: still smelling antifreeze
If your heater core is leaking, it would roll out through the drain on the passenger firewall...
Here is a pic of mine when it was leaking...look at the black hole on the firewall all the way down:

Im still smelling antifreeze when the heat is on hot but not on warm inside the car, ive checked for leaks under the car and inside but nothing. Any ideas?

It took awhile for the smell to go away after I replaced my second heater core. (I have a restrictor now!!) A little antifreeze will make quite a noticable smell in the ductwork.
