There is no particular interaction.

Extraplanar Lens cares about the name of the imprinted card. If you've imprinted Snow-Covered Island on it, then whenever you tap a land specifically named Snow-Covered Island for mana, you will get an additional mana.

Dryad of the Ilysian Grove gives your lands every basic land type in addition to their other types, but it doesn't change their names. Snow-Covered Forest will be a Plains Island Swamp Mountain Forest, but it is still named Snow-Covered Forest. Since it doesn't share a name with the card imprinted on Extraplanar Lens, it does not tap for extra mana.

Even if you imprinted a basic Forest, the Snow-Covered Forest would not tap for additional mana, because names are not the same.

How would the interaction between snow-covered lands that are not affected by Extraplanar Lens and Dryad of the Ilysian Grove work? For example Extraplanar Lens is paired with a Snow-Covered Island and then Dryad of the Ilysian Grove is played with Snow-Covered Forest on the battlefield. Would the Snow-Covered Forest also tap for an additional mana?

Another note for Tainted Pact, if you are ballin on a budget, you can have a Snow-Covered Island along with your regular Island (same goes for other basic land types) because while they are both basic lands of the same basic land type they are a different name so it works with pact.

-1 Island, +1 Cephalid Coliseum. I feel more comfortable with this because I am already running a Snow-Covered Island

Extraplanar Lens and 25 Snow-Covered Island would help your ramp situation.

Deck Update: 12/6/2019:

• - Glasses of Urza
• - King Crab
• -3 Snow-Covered Island
• + Illusionist's Bracers
• + Talrand, Sky Summoner
• + Merchant Scroll
• + Painter's Servant
• + Grindstone

Took out Glasses of Urza for Illusionist's Bracers . Glasses are nice but the bracers allow me to use more abilities that interact with cards in the deck. King Crab for Talrand, Sky Summoner . King Crab is too expensive and the ability is nice but Talrand is just more useful in every stage of the game. The land swap for Merchant Scroll , Painter's Servant and Grindstone . 31 lands should be more than enough to power this deck. I added Merchant Scroll in order to allow me to fetch more utility or answers for things. Painter's Servant fits the theme behind the deck although Grindstone was really just put in for the cheeky win condition. Look at it as your big red button...
