i have 99 328i e46 and i found that i have a air leak under the right corner of the intake manifold standing in front of car i found it by putting smoke through the vacumm line that goes to the secondary air pump valve. i was wondering what it could be and the leak is coming from behind the electric valve switch #5 http://realoem.com/bmw/showparts.do?model=AM53&mospid=47723&btnr=11_2203&hg=11&fg=45 and also if that can affect performance?

The solenoid you are referring to will leak if under pressure from a smoke machine. I would consider this normal.
