My restored kobo is working wonderfully, its so fast and responsive now.
i didnt bother try to restore my annotations as it is not automated i was scared i may brake something!
I did back up reading positions but they would not restore and i realised as you said @davidt the locations in the database must have changed when i converted epubs to kepubs.

Long story short i manually set up up again! luckily i took pictures of reading positions just incase and what books was finished and watch was on my shelf!
i did have a problem with a couple kepubs not opening but opening fine as an epub, displaying the error Opps... blah blah blah. i found out there was a formatting error and i needed to use sigil to correct it buy opening and saving the epubs which took ages as it was alot of books! but it all works fine now!

@booklover6 my database takes a while to process when i first upload everything but gets quicker when i add the odd book here and after the initial update. im not sure but i think when i updated the data in device library via kobo plugin in calibre it didnt have to process anything,maybe give that a go?

overall im happy i restored the device given all the extra work required it was still worth it and im happy with the extra information that comes with the kepubs and im not sure if its in my head but im sure the formatting is different/better!? the only downside is the large headers but i guess its a small price to pay..

Thanks for all the help!
