Check out these scantool readings for my MAF. Bad?

Hey guy's heres the lowdown. 1986 Camaro 305 tpi. My Camaro has been throwing code 34 and 33, and 44 for some time now, and I suspect the MAF sensor is going bad. I have tried different relays to no avail. Heres what my cheap autozone scanner reads.

Engine Idling-

MAF GR/Sec- ranges from 247 to as high as 1036 at idle. It should stay consistent and not move much at all correct?

Here's a couple others i would like to know if are in spec, since I don't know much about what the specs should be for our cars.

Injector pulse width reads 91-96 at idle

BLM- 130

O2 crosscounts-86-172

O2 sensor is constantly reading lean. I know thats not right for sure.

Now yesterday I took off my Throttlebody, removed the IAC, cleaned it as per Vaders instructions, cleaned the heck out of the TB butterfly's, and the IAC passages. Reinstalled the IAC and T/B with a new gasket. Reset TPS to .54 volts at closed throttle. Reset Min air idle as per vaders instructions, and the car doesnt want to idle on its own 98% of the time. I unhooked the PCV hose, and it idled on its own since more air was being sucked in i guess. Car is still throwing MAF codes 33 and 34 and 44.

Please help me guys i need my car!

Those numbers seem way out of whack. Its been awhile since I hooked up to a MAF TPI car, but of all the other Port Fuel MAF cars (3100, 3400, 3800, 5.3L & LS1), they have all been pretty stable, somewhere between 5-8 Gram/Sec at idle.

Also, injector pulsewidth was usually 2-3.5 miliseconds.

Yeah I defnitely don't think these numbers are in spec. I'm pretty sure a MAF sensors readings should'nt be that high and jump like that at Idle. Exhaust is always reading lean too. I do have some exhuast leaks come to think of it, but only after the O2 sensor. O2 sensor is a OEM bosch unit and it's not even probably 2 months old. AARRRRGGGGHHHHHHHH!
