The breather hose that comes off my rocker cover is solid as a rock and has cracks and bits of the hose missing, is this contributing to my eratic idle? It surges around.

Definitely!!! That breather hose is basically a huge vacuum hose on these cars. If it's cracked, it'll be sucking in all kinds of air. That air is unmetered (didn't pass through the air flow meter), so it'll cause all kinds of idle issues. Time to replace it!
