Got a few more pics, first I thought I'd show how I fitted some of the engine ancillaries for anyone who may attempt this in the future.
The 3rd gen comes with a different type of oil pressure sender which is not compatible with the 162, simplest thing to do is mount the original one to the new engine. The old sensor will foul on the head, so it needs to be mounted further out to clear it. I bought this pair of brass fittings for a grand total of $1.35, works a treat.
I used the ST202 charcoal cannister VSV (with the blue plug), in conjunction with the original ST162 cannister. I just fashioned up a little bracket (the silver one you can see, it's made from galvanised angle section that I get from Bunnings) and attached it to the strut tower. The two lines that lead to it (in the foreground on the left) are from the intake, right where the throttle butterfly is located - see earlier pics.
MAP sensor. Found this was the easiest place to mount it so that both connections could be made easily.
Coil & Igniter. I turned the coil around 180 degrees on the bracket (needed to grind the bracket a bit) so that all four electrical connections are at the same end - I found that made it easier to connect everything to the loom.
Looking at the coil/igniter from the other direction. Just bolted the bracket at one end to the mount on the strut brace. Not the neatest solution, but gets the job done.
A/C VSV mounted to the firewall.
To be continuued..........
