A smell of exhaust fumes when starting your 2004 Honda Accord could indicate a few potential issues. It may be due to a leak in the exhaust system, such as a cracked manifold or damaged gaskets, allowing fumes to escape.

Yes, a catalytic converter can influence the smell of exhaust fumes. If the converter is functioning properly, it helps reduce harmful emissions and can eliminate some of the rich, fuel-like odors. However, if the catalytic converter is failing or there's an issue with the engine, such as incomplete combustion or fuel mixture problems, it may lead to a richer smell in the exhaust fumes. In such cases, addressing the underlying issues can help mitigate the odor.

Your exhaust may be leaking slightly at the front. The fumes can easily end up in the car this way. Exhaust gasses are poisonous so you should get it looked at as soon as you can. Another cause could be that a breather pipe has come of the engine or air box.
