And does it make a difference if the Muc-Lhr is with avios. (Lhr to Tlv is cash)

There is no way you can have a cash and reward bookings combined together in one booking, If you want MUC-LHR as a reward booking and LHR-TLV as a cash booking they could only be separate bookings/tickets and that means no checking through of bags and no connection protection across separate tickets,
