Hi guys. I am having trouble with the attached automation. For some reason in addition to the requested back bet it also places erroneous £2 back bets at 1000/1 and I cant for the life of me figure out why. Any help gratefully received.

Its because you using stakes below the £2 Betfair minimum.
The only way for BA to put sub £2 back bets into the market is to first place it at the highest odds of 1000.0
Then cancel the excess and move the remaining required amount down to the price.
If your unfortunate and a runner happens to hit 1000 between you submitting the bet and it appearing in the market it will get matched at 1000.
If your greening up and it's happening because some runners are already at 1000.0 there is an option in your main greening settings where you can instruct BA not to submit bets on a selection if the price greater than 'X'
