What vaccuum hose do I suck this stuff through? Or can I just dump it in the carb from the top? Also, what significance does it have if it's put in oil and gas? I figured I'd just put a little in each.
 
Whenever I do it, I run it half in the gas tank, and half through the intake. you can put it straight in the carb if you like. I run it through the brake booster hose. after its in, shut it off and let it sit for 5-10 mins, and then run the piss out of it. I love this stuff, it does wonders!
 
If I put it in the oil for say 50 miles(?) would it help with a noisey lifter?
 
As much as I hate to display my ignorance (although I'll do it a lot here), what is seafoam? I've seen several posts about it, but I'm not familiar with it.
 
An alcohol based engine cleaner, "Mechanic in a can" If you would. Works in all types of motors, gas, diesel, 2 stroke. Can be added to the gas, oil, straight into the intake. Helps clean out carbon, unstick gunk, ect. I have used it in many vehicles and it def does its job well.
 
I'm not exactly sure what the brake booster hose connects to. Does it eventually recirculate into the carb? Would dumping it straight into the top of the carb have the same effect?

Yes it would have the same effect.. Pour it slowly so you don't hydrolock the motor.
 
Through the primaries or secondaries? Or a little bit in each?
