It can’t by definition be a vacuum leak if it’s before the throttle plate.

I understand that having the correct vacuum is important and that air leaks in the system interfere with that. My question is where in the system are air leaks critical. Is it important from the oilbath air breather to the throttle flap that there be no air leaks? If I was to make a smoke machine to introduce smoke into the system would I attach it to the end of the oil breather or maybe remove it and attach to the throttle body? I hope this makes some sense.
