Finally reassembled.
Fired her up, slightly different tone to the exhaust but sounds ok.
Plugged in IID, immediate improvement in fuel trims, cleared fault codes from before and will take her for a run tomorrow.==================================

Wow is all I can say, goes like it should do now.
Unfortunately that dodgy sensor is now showing heating circuit failure, so CEL is back on.==================================
