5d - Smuggling in ecstasy become cracked and mean, and 24a - About to leave proceeds in place. Are the answers cheap and venue? Help appreciated with parsing please?

Yes, CHEAP - chap is in "chapped" or cracked lips, with E inside.
Don't know about the other - what are the placed letters?

Hi Bassett,

Yes.

Become cracked = CHAP (as in chapped lips) around E

Proceeds = REVENUE minus RE (About to leave)
