How to prevent "pooling"

Okay a wet plate kit with a purge set up. What's the best way ,if any, to prevent pooling nitrous before & after a run?

I was concerned with possible unburned nitrous that may have pooled reason being unknown.

well nitrous isn't a liquid so it cannot pool, it would atomize and kinda just evaporate. If you were to accidentially inject any nitrous into your motor, you could easyly evacuate it by unpluging your coil packs and crank on the motor for a few seconds. Nitrous cannot ignite without fire. Im not an expert or anything, so if any other info can be added plz do so

Nitrous oxide is a liquid when at high pressure in the bottle but is a gas at atmospheric pressure. Nitrous cannot pool in the manifold. The sure way to prevent fuel pooling in the manifold is to use a dry setup.
