So i need to run Ubuntu server to run a private mining pool, but i don't currently have a spare machine or cash to buy one. 

If i run it through a VM (virtualbox specifically) , will there be any difference as to functionality vs running it on a seperate box?

Nope, it should act just like a standalone install.

Nope, just virtualization features will be disabled from my knowledge cause nested virtualization is not that good on virtualbox.
