Oil in the intake is possible, even very likely if you never actually went in there and cleaned up after the AOS failure (did the AOS full-on fail or was it on its way out?). I'd say get in there and check your throttle body and the intake plumbing for some oil, and give it a good cleaning if you find any.
No harm in cleaning the MAF before going with a replacement, but I'd recommend buying one anyways and having it on hand so that you can replace it when the time eventually comes. Pelican Parts is where I got mine from. Also, whether you clean the MAF or not, go get the car hooked up to a scanner anyways, might as well give it a good once over since you've yet to do so. It can't hurt, right? Small expense for a gain in knowledge, even if it ends up telling you everything's ok.
