So the top of my AOS is broken pretty badly. What effect is that going to have on my engine? What should I expect from it? TIA

The top of it is broken. It doesn't seem to be leaking from the bottom. pm with a price. I do need a new one for sure.
Other than leaking, what effect will it have? There is a hose to it. Can it cause a vac leak?

It'll leave a nice thin layer of oil around that area. not an actual vac leak but an air intake leak. the AFM/MAF will give a slight different reading then the amount of air going into the engine though, since it connects to the J-boot.

If so, that would explain my lag issues.

That's true when there is vacuum at the intake. When on boost, metered air will escape from any intake leaks and the motor will run richer than intended.
