Japanese banzai. 2nd line squad ends Mph in jungle hex with enemy squad. Japanese. 1st line squad advances in. Do the Japanese get both stealthy and lax modifiers to ambush or just lax?

Per G1.6, there is no stealth effect. If all Japanese have Banzai-ed in this situation, everyone of them is lax.

1.6 MISCELLANEOUS: Good Order Elite and 1st-Line Japanese Infantry (including crews) are Stealthy, while Conscripts are Lax [EXC: all Japanese Infantry that make a Banzai Charge are Lax for the rest of that Player Turn].

[edit -- I'd add that if the first line unit had not been in the Banzai, then it would be both, since it retains its stealthy characteristic]

That’s what I thought. Should have held back a first line from the banzai.
Or have entered their hex during the Banzai only and not advanced into the hex during the APh, then there would have been no chance for Ambush in the 1st place.
