SES + TRIFECTA LITES = Vacuum leak?

So, recently got a code for big vacuum leak. Possible cat failure. Then got the classic trifecta lights. Noticing a very slight rumble from left front wheel.
Can a worn wheel bearing trigger issues with the brake/speed sensor on the left front wheel? If the SAP hose lines are 16 years old, and seriously cracked I can figure they need replacing . BUT what about the electronic vacuum control valve? Do these fail after all these years? Is there some test? I see there is another valve before I get to the brake booster. This one too?
X drives fine, good mpg and braking is strong. Any advice or experience
wtih this side of issues?
