Use a spray bottle with some water while the motor is running. The motor will shutter if the water gets into a leaky spot.

A vacuum hose bro. If your looking for a vacuum leak look in a vacuum hose. I haven't kept up with your other post but this is all about your glowing headers?

Near the egr there should be some vacuum lines red and green, remove one then hook up the gauge. Either one reads engine vacuum at idle. Your looking for a steady 17in (steady needle)hg of vacuum. Either port will read the same. Because its before the throttle body.
