Down to the last four and stumped.
40a Investigators have stamped around, that's agreed - think it's either COINCIDER/S
50a Drug required: he had run into back of apple tree - think it's ephedrine?
44a If not blocked by piano, pass by (6) ?L?P??
41d Stop deal in restricting limits on Omani fuel (6, 3) ?????? O?L
Many thanks in advance - brain broken!
