On the right side and its pooling on the exhaust manifold heat sheid and smoking. Thought it was a valve cover gasket but still happeneing after a replacment. Wife was driving and one side of the radiator cracked and the engine overheated. Leak came after. Engine is running fine but I can't find this leak. 03 with a 3.7.

Can you actually see the leak? I'd wash the exhaust pipe and general area off with strong degreaser and water and give it a couple more days. It took a little time for my cat to stop smoking after changing the valve cover gasket. Chalk it up residual oil...

Check the oil to make sure it's not turning milkshaky.

Hopefully it's like TypeRx says, but if you overheated and it's now leaking... first thing that jumps to mind is 'head gasket'. :(

Hopefully it's not!
