Default Vaccum Leak, Heater Core?

Would a Leak in the heater core cuase a vaccum leak?
i one time temporarily used a non fitted heater hose and when i put it on there was a slight creas and htought it wouldnt affect in it but i guess it did after i drove it and i didnt realize it had a bent in it so iguess it had clogged and busted fluid into my interior, and now i changed it, it works fine, but i still might have a slight leak , so will a busted heater core cause a vaccum leak?

NO WAY! don't be rediculous. if you have to ask that you don't need to work on your own stuff.

The only thing I can think of is a bubble in the IACV coolant chamber, causing it to not heat up as engine temps increase.
