My say: just keep driving it. My car had an idle that was all over the place when I got it first and now its fine. Until it gives you more obvious signs and symptoms to work with I feel like there isn't much else to do. Get it smoke tested tho. When I think about how the E36 ran when I had some hoses missing it reminds of the same behavior. You just gotta find it. There's probably a reason why have so many new hoses. The dealer (or maybe PO) was maybe trying to hunt down the same issue and couldn't find it? IDK.
