If a fuel relay was gone (2 litre corsa) would the spark plugs still spark even though the car obviously won't start ?

Nope nothing, its just like normal

I think the relay is faulty which is why it wont start BUT it should still spark but nothing there

if its a recent conversion then you should have changed the chip in the key. if you dont have the key/chip from the car that provided the engine, its a short trip to vaux me thinks
