As posted, you're going to have to change the oil again. The vacuum line is the one from the brake booster to the intake manifold. It's about 1/2" diameter. The 'large valve' under the air cleaner is not the best place to pour Seafoam in, in fact, other threads on this subject have specifically warned against using the main air intake. I did, with no 'bad' results, but I'll use the brake vacuum line next time. It's very hard to get off, maybe use a heat gun or hair dryer to make it more pliable. The smoking will occur after you restart the engine after letting it sit for awhile with the Seafoam inside.
