Smoking near a PC isn't going to damage it. You'll likely need to clean more frequently etc - but that would happen whether you smoke next to the PC, or in another room .... it'll still be in the air, and get sucked into the case.

As for 10 seconds or so directly near the PC while cleaning it out? Not a chance.

You're fine.

It's not going to do anything bad to it unless you smoke all the time then you could get nicotine build up on some of the parts making them run warmer.

There will be a smell that your PC will acquire. You may not notice, but others will.
