Aside from the smell of coolant, are there any visible indicators of the pipe failures? I am looking into a used CTT and a service advisor from the dealership that the vehicle was serviced at says the pipes weren't done.

I would be adding (distilled) water not coolant if you suspect a leak, no sense adding more of that stuff to crust up on your engine if you don't need to. It's not going to be either too hot or too cold in Atlanta this time of year.

If your smelling the fluid but not seeing any leaks you need to stop driving the car especially if your filling it with large amounts of coolant. If it's the coolant pipes than you are most likely filling the valley of the motor and that's going to destroy the starter and possibly the rear motor/transmission seal.
