Can someone school me on how this piece being broken would effect the sled running. I got it home after I ended up bogging hard on the last km down of the trip and noticed this elbow was busted

It sure is.

Exhaust valves won't be opening and will cause a bog.

Did you clean the power valves? They get pretty gummed up and can stick.
