vacuum hoses

Hello, I am writing because I am not auto tech and the dealership has told me things I don’t understand.
My car experienced water damage to the rear trunk affecting the modules to the point that every warning light came on at once. When taken to the dealership they said they could replace those under insurance. But now I had 8 fouled spark plug and injectors that wouldn’t close spraying gas everywhere and that the car would be dangerous to start. They wrote, and stated that I had “cross swapped vacuum hoses” from a recent engine replacement and showed video of this. I confused because there were no misfires, hiccups or symptoms of any kind prior to the Christmas tree lights.
Any thoughts would be appreciated
Thank you

This is a website for 1982 to 1992 Chevrolet Camaros and Pontiac Firebirds. You need to find a website for BMWs.
