A very nice effect indeed.
I don’t see a way around drawing the motion paths newly in AE or AI, as they would have to follow very specific routes. But having a 3D object as a reference should make this fairly straightforward.
Another option that comes to mind is animating textures along the surfaces of the sub-objects in 3D. But I seriously doubt that would make it any easier.

Perhaps an expression (or two) that places the layer in a certain 3D position depending on the layer index number? Then you could just import all the pictures copy and paste the expression and they would be placed automatically.

Maybe a mask wipe that follows one of the cars? Do you know where the cut supposedly is?

Since there is no perspective change, just a zoom in, you could get away tracking just one point, attaching a screen-shaped mask to it and doing the scaling keyframes manually. People in front of the screen will have to be rotoed.

Or, you can make the “lid” asset a square and use corner pin and null objects to animate it.

Hi Ben,
You’re really just simulating a 3D move in 2D, not even 2.5D, so this is how you’ll have to do it:
You can skip animating the slant, but it will not look as good, as the plane will move linearly, not in a circular fashion.
-
Simple solution: Attach the xRotation value to the yPosition: Faster changes in y position makes for faster rotation.

I had this problem when Quicktime output format options was set to Animation. When I switched it to JPEG, the issue vanished.
