There is no word "'ey" in English.
And there is no phrase "va fa un culo." There is a "vaffanculo" though.
However, the OP was not written in Italian. It was a phonetic spelling of an Italian-American dialect vulgar colloquialism from the Northeast US.
Have a swell day. And bless your heart for helping me out.
