how new are the pipes? new pipes can stink? other than that.. old cars and trucks ofte small like burnt oil. i would guess they are both burning some oil, or maybe even just galvanizing or somehting off the pipes them selves, or even rust of they have been sitting a while.

Yeah, that nasty gas-n-rotten-egg smell.

I'd say your hunch was right: the missing cat is probably the difference.

It's an easy fix, just not a cheap one!

Good luck...
