Thanks, that's what I wanted to know. The smoke exits from any and all exit points at 2.4 psi. No need for 15 psi. I found my leak, and you have kindly informed me that the smoke will come out via open valves, which is what I suspected.
I have a new to me AQ130C with a known leak from the heat exchanger system. I piped in smoke from a smoke generating leak detector via the exhaust output pipe (whatever that is called), and soon found an obvious leak. But then I saw smoke coming out of both carb inlets (arrowed in the picture)...
