I cannot follow this at all, I get mixed up with the MAF and MAF housing. I think I would be tempted to start out with the original parts on the car, see what code is set and go from there.
In other words find out the basic problem before trying to solve it by adding other parts that may compound the problem.
We expect you still are using the original MAF sensor it may only ha needed cleaning and you may have replaced it with a broken one. Who knows, get back to square one and start again.
