Will the oil injector work correctly?
well i got my new used motor and i was removed emissions, replacing vac. lines ect.. and the 1-4 splitter the goes to the oil injectors the lines were not wanting to come off very easy, so id clipped some of the vac. line ond pulled them off no problem well on one of the lines i clipped the plastic nipple a little bit and now it has a cut on the nipple.I got a new line to go over it so there shouldn't be a vac. leak, I was wondering will this cause any problems?

I doubt it, as long as the vacuum line covers the hole.
I broke one of my plastic nipples clean off, so I put gasket sealant on a screw, screwed it in the hole, then put a y-splitter on one of the remaining 3 plastic nipples. I can still see oil going through all 4 lines. You might just want to look at all the lines when your car is idling to see if you can tell if oil is moving through them.

The vacuum line on top of the oil injector nipple DOES NOT have vacuum on it. That is a source of filtered air from a source prior to the throttle plates. No vacuum. Examine the diagram in the fsm OR get a good cigar and blow into the large nipple on the throttle body and observe where the smoke exits. It WILL exit in front of the throttle plates...in the middle of the throttle body...thru an approx 1/4 inch hole.
