Get a tarp and cut a 2ftX2ft square, pour a mixture of water, seafoam (found in most O'riely Auto Stores, try Napa too), and Great Stuff (found in Lowes or Home Depot), over general engine area. Next,turn your car on and quickly get the tarp over and around the engine. Leave to sit for 2-3 minutes. Turn car off. Remove tarp. Get another bottle of Great Stuff and apply over complete engine. Congrats you just protected your engine from not only anti freeze frome entering it, but from engine sludge, and over heating too.

Why is smoke coming out the antifreeze container?
Smoke coming out of the antifreeze container may indicate overheating or a serious engine problem, such as a blown head gasket, which can cause coolant to leak into the engine. It could also be a result of coolant boiling over due to excessive heat. In some cases, if the antifreeze is contaminated or if there’s a chemical reaction, it could produce smoke or steam. It's essential to address this issue promptly to prevent severe engine damage.

Will a thermostat cause the car to overheat?
Thermostats determine when antifreeze enters the main cooling system. If the thermostat isn't working correctly, the antifreeze could enter the engine to late, (or not at all) resulting in an over heating engine. Another problem of having antifreeze enter the engine late, is that if your engine is very hot, possibly a little warmer than common, when the antifreeze enters the engine, the cold fluid could cause the engine block to cool down quickly, causing a cracked engine block.

Why do you add antifreeze to your car?
Antifreeze does 2 things. First it protects your engine when the outside temperature is below freezing and the vehicle is not running. If the coolant freezes it could crack your engine block requiring a new engine. Caution: 100% antifreeze will also freeze up if it gets too cold. For best results you have to mix antifreeze and water. Check the antifreeze container for correct mixture. Antifreeze also has other things in it that keeps the water pump in good shape, prevents corrosion of the the radiator and helps transfer heat out of the engine. You need it even in hot weather.
