*very* lean.
To me, this suggests you've got a leak somewhere
- extra air in the exhaust system is causing the gas mixture in the exhaust to read lean.
This does
*not* mean the engine itself is running lean.
If the leak is upstream of the lambda sensor, then this will throw off the ECU's lambda reading, and therefore throw off the fuelling.
So, this could be linked to your high CO problem.
Find the leak!

Could an aftermarket K+N air cone filter or issues with leaking air hoses as opposed to exhaust leaks cause a running lean scenario too?

I'm going to change the Lambda sensor with a Denso one, where ar you folk buying the Denso ones as the motor factors couldn't get me a Denso one? Can I get a Denso somewhere other than Toyota?

I'm starting to lose interest in the car now, every emissions test done on it seems to give completely different readings.
