Default Can a leaking valve cover gasket cause vacuum problems?

I have a hesitation problem and I noticed that on some threads it was mentioned that the engine should stumble or stall when the dipstick is pulled or oil filler cap removed. Mine doesn't do that but I did notice some oil leaking from the gasket. Could this be my hesitation problem. I will change the gasket anyway, but I was just wondering.....

Much more so in turbo engines than the na engines.
