The other thing that strikes me in those videos is how it almost seems like you're hitting a rev limiter at 5800RPMs. Are you sure the tach is accurate?
As for those hoses with cracks in them they all need to be replaced. Don't even bother smoke testing or any other air leak testing till you replace them. Any crack in those oil breather hoses is bad.

Idle switch should be cleaned or replaced? Is there a proper way to test it?
Tach is about 10-15 KM/H fast - I've compared it to a GPS speedometer.
Thanks,
