Default need help with seafoam

I am going to use the seafoam treatment on my car tomorrow and just need to know what vacuum line/hose, etc. I should use to get it into the intake. I have a stock 5.0 motor, so if someone could show me which hose I should use or give me general directions where to look I would greatly appreciate it. Just don't want to do it wrong and damage anything.

Thanks....

if I'm looking at the car in front of me it's a big hose that runs along the right front of the engine bay and plugs in to a tree of hoses, correct? Marked with an 'S'?

that short hose on the brake booster? If that's what you're talking about, I got it. Thanks mjr. I learn a lot from reading your posts. Appreciate the help.

so I put 5 oz in through the brake booster, let it sit 20 minutes and started the car, but there was no smoke at all. Not even a puff. Doesn't make sense on a car that's 16 years old and was sitting for several of them. Should I do it again?
