Would a loud backfire through the intake manifold while cranking engine on 93 grand am sohc mean that you just ruined a valve cause it started yesterday with no problem and today this happened?
Yes...all valves bent...smacked piston...good old interference engines. Started cranking really fast cause valves stuck open from overheat then...BAM...backfire out intake after only 15seconds of cranking...Head back off again. answering own question. Impossible to say. You need to find out why it backfired. Suggest you do a compression test.
What is an air intake?

For those Landcruisers that are equipped with a snorkel, it allows the vehicle to cross through bodies of water which normally would be impassable. The snorkel is attached to the air intake for the engine and effectively raises the location of the air intake such that the vehicle can drive through water that normally would be sucked into the air intake causing a stall.

What causes 16.5 Briggs and Stratton backfire a lot while in use?
There are several reasons the engine would backfire, but the three main culprits are a dirty air filter, a loose intake manifold bolt or gasket (vacuum leak), or a faulty spark plug. If the problem is not one of these three, check out a book on small engine trouble-shooting and repairs from your local library. You will find other procedures a little more complicated in the manual to help you trouble-shoot.
Would a bad manifold gasket cause gross vacuum leak at the intake?
Yes. If an intake manifold gasket was not installed properly or has somehow become damaged the engine will pull air through the opening.
