I am on kibana 8.17 - it seems a whole load of chart types are no longer available or have they just been hidden from view?

With 8.17 the chart switch UI has been revisited.  
Now you can find:

- main charts within the Layer UI
- options like stacked or single are positioned next to it
- options like Vertical or Horizontal variants are now within the visual options (brush icon) popover
