Could I have gotten hiv from preforming oral sex?

It was a one time thing. He did ejaculate in my mouth. I had severely chapped lips and had been bitting my lips all that day. What are my chances that I contracted hiv this way?

Oral sex is NOT a risk for HIV, even if your partner ejaculated in your mouth and even if you had chapped lips which you'd been biting.

Human saliva contains bacteria and enzymes that render the virus inactive. (Unable to infect)

Oral sex can be a risk for OTHER STD's and I would recommend you have a complete panel done.
