The original pilot took place during Broken, but then they edited it out. The events of OUaTiW probably did not happen yet, and Will is still heartless. OUaTiW still took place during Season 2 of Once even with them making the connections to "Broken" less specific. The street directly in front of The Rabbit Hole - which is where Alice, Cyrus, and the Rabbit come out when they come to Storybrooke in "Heart of the Matter" - can be seen being repaired in several Once episodes (thank you to the folks at Once Podcast for pointing this out). The Once podcast is not the offical Once podcast, though. Adam Horowitz and Edward Kitsis did an official ABC podcast for season two, but they did not do one for season three. While fanmade podcasts do give interesting theories and possibilities, anything they theorize can either be true or not true. So it's still a theory that the rabbit hole they come out of is the same one which is repaired on some Once episodes.
