I can confirm the vx220 z22se engines were exactly the same as the Astra engine. Lotus just added the vx specific stuff.
However I am unsure why the vx gearbox was given the code TN, espeically when it appears to be identical to the Astra F23 AH gearbox

there are a few F23 gearbox bellhousing types; V6, diesel, family 1 (z20let, x20xe, etc) and family 2 (z22se, z22yh, etc), plus the vectra B z22se has a different gearbox mount position - not shared with any other model

I have the Zafira box, F something, it's a good match in the VX220, give better acceleration but still only revs 3000rpm at 70mph.
why do you think you have a Zafira gearbox? What is the code on the gearbox sticker? If it says 'TN' then you have the VX220 2.2 version of the F23

you probably have the XY gearbox with the 4.17 fd which is good.
