Other than what you have replaced, the faults could be:

1. Fuel Pressure Regulator faulty or vacuum hose to it broken/leaking
2. Pack G is actually B3 (Left Bank); there could be a fault in the Ignition Module for the left bank, when it heats-up. The two ignition modules (left and right) are located next to the brake vacuum booster.

I had the same issues. Car ran fine for 10-15 minutes then ran rough, occasionally lurching on acceleration. New knock sensors cured the problem instantly and now runs like I dream, I'm so surprised that they made such a massive improvement.
