I think if coolant had been exiting via the overflow pipe to the road, you'd
have driven past it before you could smell it.

I think when under pressure, a fine spray of atomized coolant is coming from a
pin-hole perforation in the radiator (passenger side top, perhaps, or maybe
the side of the top hose) and that caused the wet patch on the underside of
the bonnet.

Let us know how you get on...
