Google also offers you the option of creating a blank file. I use this method on my own sites, it creates less clutter in the templates.

You need to upload it where it can be accessed like so: http://www.yourdomain.com/googleXXXXXXX.html

In case you don't want to do that, just follow the following to add the meta tag:

AdminCP - Styles & Templates - Style Manager - Choose to edit the default style - Choose to edit headinclude template - Find <meta name="generator" content="vBulletin $vboptions[templateversion]" /> - After that add the code google gave you

It is not a VB3 engine, just a parsed copy!
