re: V'imru Amein in O'seh Shalom
We discussed this many years ago on Avodah:  For sources - first see Baer's
Avodas yisroel  p. 104 & 130 as to why BOTH have v'imru amein

Briefly:
re: Kaddish: the o'seh in Kaddish is redundant  because yehei shlomoh rabbah
covers the topic already in Aramaic. And o'seh is in Hebrew - does it really
belong to the Aramaic Kaddish?

re: Amidah  the v'imru amein is then re-adapted back to the Amdiah, although
it does not belong there. It should be at MOST Amein w/o the v'imru!  [iow,
it is a copyist/printer's error to say v'imru at the end of the Amidah!]
