is there a licenced version of Pac-Man for the NES by tengen in the usual grey cart besides the unlicenced Tengen and the rare Namco Pac-Mans for the NES?

that is correct. Apparently Tengen finally relented and got a license to make NES gamea, Pac-Man being one of them.

Yes, but they did the "grey" licensed first, the "black" unlicensed came after (when they knew who to bypass the lockout chip)

I thought it was the other way around- Tengen signed up to be a licensee just long enough to figure out the chip and then started producing black cartridges. The grey versions are all supposed to be harder to find, anyway.

So the licenced Pac-Man for the NES is just as rare as the Namco Pac-Man for the NES then?

The licensed Ms Pac is the Namco release. The three Tengen releases that were both licensed & unlicensed were Pac Man, Gauntlet & RBI Baseball.
