Failed MOT - emissions and headlight beam

Bloomin' emissions failed- first and second tests lambda reading was 1.041 (think max permitted was 1.03). Would it make a difference if the car had a good run before the test - MOT is only 5 mins from home and went there from cold.. If not, which lambda would need replacing?

Also failed on o/s headlight beam angle being 'clearly wrong'. It's not the height and have checked that the bulb is seated correctly. When lights are on it's very different against the gararge wall to the n/s lamp..
