Upon replacing the valve cover I forgot to disconnect the battery and my question is; would not erasing fault codes affect the performance of the car? These faults include, sensors on and around the valve cover, removed ignition coils and I also replaced the vacuum pump. All these were done while the battery was still connected.

Yes, if the codes are performance based, engine power can be decreased. best bet is to clear the faults. You can to cycling the key 40 times to see if they clear.
