    It is the radiator hose that's leaking and it smells awful.

    Replace the hose. Is there mold on it? The coolant itself shouldn't have a bad smell.

    Replacing the hose should take like 2 minutes. You will lose some coolant so put a bucket under the work area as to not kill your kids. And buy a jug of coolant to replace it.
