3) N159 (Routes 159, 109, 466) although the section between Addington Village and New Addington would require a fourth route.
4) N7 - Yeading

2.) Ruislip. Stations are: Ruislip, West Ruislip, Ruislip Gardens, Ruislip Manor and South Ruislip.
5.) N3, C.Palace & Bromley North N159, Streatham & New Addington N29, Wood Green and Enfield Town N98, Willesden & Stanmore N207, Hayes By Pass & Uxbridge
and just to complete the only 6 routes that do this: N18, Sudbury & Harrow Weald.

2.) Ruislip is correct, nearest night buses are at Hillingdon, Harrow Weald and Northolt 3.) Not the N159, it doesn't cover all of the 466. Not the N31/N136 as they only emulate one route in full. 4.) N7 is correct (Yeading)
5.) N3/N18/N29/N98/N159/N207 are all correct, however there are two other routes I know that also count.
6.) a.) The N91 yes, the N9 just about, although it follows a slightly different line of route for some of the way. b.) N8 is correct c.) N550/551 correct. d.) N5 and N20 are two possibilities. e.) N73 yes, N38 no.
7.) N86 no. The route has to be 100% identical to the day routing, including turning points. A clue is that it's related to Q5.

A couple more answers/guesses for Q6 and Q7:
a) N97? d) N155 e) N2, Victoria to Brixton f) N76
7) N52, it's the only N route I can find that's 100% percent identical.
