Have you tried using starting spray on a cold engine first? I find that to be faster than smoke. However if you want to use smoke the easiest way is to put the smoke into the intake at the throttle body and plug the area around it. That fills the intake with smoke and all the lines and ports as well. Then you start sniffing and looking for smoke.
