Default burn smell from 2002 mpv

I have a 2002 MPV...In the winter when my windows are fogging, I use the Outside Air control and with my temperature control in the warm/hot position. After a bit there is a 'burning smell', that is not pleasant. Also when I am done driving the outside of the car, near the hood, has a burning smell. Does anybody know why?

Somewhere I read about a $20 part located behind the ac compressor that is causing the burnt oil smell
