tanngo, are you saying that you are hearing a 'blowing' type of noise rear of the throttle body, maybe under it? A slight air noise is normal on mine, maybe even more pronounced on an XKR with the SC, I am not sure.
Now, a smell of exhaust, that is a different matter altogether. I've not heard of any exhaust manifold leaks with that range of 4.0L engines. If you're sitting still, engine running, you may be smelling the exhaust that is surrounding the car, it will be heavier than air until it becomes dispersed in time.
If the exhaust is leaking at the manifold, I am pretty sure the 02 sensor data would trigger some kind of fault, a check engine light, and perhaps the engine would not run smooth.
I am not totally confident in my statement, so If anyone else can chime in, that'd be great.

There is a TSB for this repair
Tanngo-
The original 2000-2002 XKR EGR tubes often cracked. Now there is an updated part. There is a factory TSB for this procedure. I have attached it. I hope it helps you. I have only the pages that apply to the XKR, so it may look like there are some pages missing.
