Smoke testing evap system through service, I have smoke coming out from where the metal lines go into the tank, is this where the vent to atmosphere port is?
Dont want to remove the tank for naught.

No, the only atmospheric vent is via the gas cap. Everything else vapor is sucked into the intake.

The whole point of EVAP is to prevent atmospheric venting.
