Poured fuel injector cleaner down Carb throat
Is this bad? I saw smoke and treated it as i would a "Seafoam" treatment
now the EGR valve is lean off and the brass fitting that attached it to the pipe came with it, but i cleaned out the carb was the intent.
I used two bottles over a few hours and car has sat for a few days
any danger, harm, or potential bad in what i did? Engine runs strong

I don't understand what you did. You poured Seafoam into the carb while the engine was running? That's fine.

I've done it many times, and nothing like that happened. I would guess your EGR has seen better days.
