Is there a recipe for making harmless smoke that would enable me to see
the air flow coming into the attic through attic vents and out the
other side of an exhaust fan?

What would you recommend?

You could order smaller quantity thru an HVAC supply house.

It's difficult to make your own for the volume of smoke
you need.
