Maybe there is some oil sitting on the block somewhere and due to the slow drive across town then there was a build up in the engine bay, I really don't know.
Does it smell like brakes/clutch or is it a stronger, more acrid smell?

From what you've said, especially as it's on the passenger side, it may be the output flange seal on the gearbox leaking fluid onto the nearside cat.

Could be miles out though but worth a look.
