The most common cause of exhaust in the interior is leaky muffler
connections to the bottom heat exchangers. Exhaust that blows forward
from those seals gets into the airbox side of the heat exchanger, and
a little of that gets into the passenger compartment even if the heat
is "off." It doesn't take much to make a lot of stink.
If that's not it, are you looking for a rear door seal or the seal
around the engine cover?
