check the vacuum hose that goes to the ECU, as this is where the  MAP sensor lives. Hose perishes etc etc

theres a black box on top of the cam cover under this is where the breathers connect to looks like a disc or flying saucer shape.

02 sensor is lambda fault
speed sensor is crank sensor fault i think. worth checking this to see if the wires are brittle or brocken.

I don't see this ? All I see is my dizzy on one end the cam belt cover on thee other end and my airfilter housing with a crank breather ? Am I just being thick and missing it ?

Agree, seems like your crank sensor is causing your stalling issues, had similar on my old 16v, wires had corroded.
