Do your power brakes work (the vacuum pump empties into the crankcase, so a large vacuum leak will create lots of "blow by")?

Referring to my earlier post about the oil consumption being less after changing oil viscosity and the timing chain....I also replaced the vacuum pump with a used, upgraded model at the same time I replaced the timing chain. I wonder if the old vacuum pump was bad contributing to the oil consumption? Possible?
