You wont see bubbles with a "Vaccum" leak Jim. Your thinking of tire puncture HOWEVER your idea will yeild a noticiable idle change if the vaccum leak is substancially large.... if your looking at a tiny pin hole, you will need someone in the drivers seat to warn you of idle changes.... Although i dont know if soap or glycerin is good or not for the intake system, valve system, o2 sensors and cats....

Blink,
On the original question, canned "smoke" is available, and is routinely used to test smoke detector heads.

One source:

There are more sources, just google "smoke detector test smoke" and a bunch will come up.

Here in SC, where you can legally buy fireworks, a package of smoke bombs is a buck or so, but then you have an open flame source near the engine with the gasoline and all I'd go with the canned smoke, hope this helps.
