The shifting was never the issue, it was when pedaling that there was like a jut when standing and putting powder down as if something was skipping but it wasn't doing it when sat down. Hence how I dont think it is the hub and is probs one of the two chains or the freewheel that could be my issue and that's why I asked in here as folks seem to know more about them.

I worry that this could be flawed logic. The one that I was inside of, which had basically been round the world, was pretty spotless inside so I don’t think the service intervals are based upon expected ingress of “shit”.
You should be able to remove the cables and part of the shift box leaving a little hex ‘stub’(?) that you should be able to turn to shift the hub into each gear. If you can do that with the hub in place in the bike and test ride it in each gear then it would be a way of eliminating or conforming the shifting hardware as the source of your problems.
The 24t ring looks a bit worn but also like its teeth are plenty high enough to be retaining the chain adequately? Who knows, I’d be surprised if it was the source of your problem, let’s put it that way.
