Spray around lightly with carb cleaner while the engine is running ... any engine note change is where the carb cleaner is being sucked in and burned...

After fixing wipe down with paper towel ... result ... fixed air leak and a nice clean engine  ..  :)

According to "My Naff Code Reader" mine requests 850 rpm idle when warmed up with aircon on, 750 rpm aircon off.
