Does mass air flow sensor need replacing if unplugged and car shuts off?

My car makes a short squeak noise when I start it. Lasts about half a second. My cousin pointed it out and since then I’m worried.

crankshaft pulley bolt is bent and car will no longer start. prior to noticing car would make knocking sound
