It all seems to be for the 38 pin round terminal, can the code reader thing be used for a 9 pin one?

No its not, I will find it later its there for the 9 pin, re code reader yes, but its all on the same page. principle is the same but you can terminate yours in standard 4mm plugs

I made one in 15 mins from things laying around, the button is in the end, this one is for the 38pin socket hence the thin probe

I know where you live, leave the car out and I will sneak round and mess up a few of your ECU's and your injection a little, then you can test the code reader.

Check out ebay for Mercedes Fault Code Readers, there is a firm called Autobitz that was selling the OBD2 Mini-readers (16-pin I Believe) for certain Mercedes models for around £25.
