My employer did not end up contributing to my 401k every month due to cash flow issues. Do I use the the total amount deducted or the amount they actually contributed?

The deferrals to your 401(k) account, provided by your employer, are on the W-2 in box 12 with a code of D.

The deferrals are not entered anywhere else on your tax return.
