One question though, when treating this situation like a slat flap jam, am I right to say that you must not select Flaps 1 for the approach?
QRH says that when flaps and slats jammed at 0, the flap lever position for landing is 1, but if you select flaps 1 the remaining engine will go to idle thrust, so treat it like a slat flap jam at 0 but don't select flap lever to 1?

Correct, but, the engines spool down when the SLATS INDICATED in position 1, not the flap lever.

The secound point, when one engine out and the other one with thrust lever fault, configure late, if too early, activate ALPHA FLOOR, i know close to the ground (above 50 ft), but your last chance to get power back. Be aware, the remaining engine is now under TOGA thrust, there is time limited. In this case, take time for approach briefing and think about early....
