Exhaust Fumes when sunroof is open

Wondering if anyone has experienced this. I am noticing a very strong odor ONLY when sunroof is open and I am at a stop or idle. The smell seems to be exhaust related and is very foul almost like a diesel exhaust smell. This is a 2021 Ram 1500 with 35K, I have had the dreaded right side exhaust manifold leak fixed but that did not change the smell. Any info is appreciated.

if you dont have an exhaust leak anywhere, theres not much you can do about it. In the city, you're gonna be smelling alot more exhaust fumes as well.

Only time I noticed that is when a diesel is in front of me.

UPDATE: I don't actually believe its exhaust fumes (I am smelling it with the vehicle off and sunroof open) it is coming from the very front of the sunroof. Almost like a very strong glue smell.
