It should go without saying: don't drive the car with the oil light on. That light only comes on when you have insufficient oil; it has nothing to do with its condition or viscosity. Meanwhile, once you figure out where the oil's gone, use whatever viscosity is recommended for the engine; whether you drive it often or not is irrelevant (but does affect how often you change it).
I don't know if that vacuum leak could cause you to fail emissions. That hose supplies vacuum to run all of the HVAC switches inside the cabin. If the fan position switch did not work when you last had the emissions tested, then, yes, the hose was off at that time.
