I just ordered some carboy caps because you can prime a siphon just by blowing. However, are there any sanitation issues with blowing into the carboy?

Yes breathing into it is not a good idea. There is a good thread about making a cheap mouth siphon that seperates the mouth tube from the beer transfer line. for about 3 dollars to use on a carboy cap. You'll be sucking instead of blowing which help minimize risk.
Here you go.
