Yea, could be the maf. Also, check and see if there are any cracks in the intake tube between the maf and the throttle body. I'm finding that this is becoming common. A crack or hole in the tube after the maf can cause a lean code as well.

Take out the maf and do a good cleaning for safe measures. You can also YouTube and watch a maf cleaning video.
