How to do a EVAP Smoke test? (P0442)

Hello people of RS25!

New member here with a bit of a problem. :(

My 2001 RS threw a P0442 (EVAP leak) code earlier this month, a quick google search reveals that many on the interweb recommended replacing the filler cap. So I went and purchased a new cap (an OEM one from the dealer if it makes a difference,) and cleared the code

A week-ish later, the CEL came back on and I was greeted with the P0442 once again. Upon further searching, another trending recommendation is to do a smoke test.

I can get access to a smoke machine, but don't know which hose to plug it to. So I guess my questions are;

Where/Which hose do I plug the smoke machine to?
Is there anything else I should check/common causes of this CEL?

Thank you in advance!
