Thank you Aker for the quick reply and fix.
I was asleep when you initially replied.
Insert hours of further testing here...
There must be a second issue in there, as I still get an error with 12.5.1 on one server.
It is intermittent though.
I have another 4x 2012 wsusoffline test VM's with various .Net frameworks and all patched fine.
It is only my 2012 rollup VM playing up. I get the same error irrespective of the seconly or rollup iso being used.
First time though there is no issue:

The syntax of the command is incorrect.
Could there be a simple parameter / value missing quotes somewhere?
If you can provide the underlying commands behind this, I can manually run them to see if I can see anything untoward.
I'm more than happy to perform additional testing as required.
I have ruled out the usual corruption issues with the error still being present after the dism and sfc commands being run and reboots.
This issue has not been seen previously with 12.4 / 11.4 and earlier.
Outside of this 2012 issue, the other 25 test VM's for 2008 through to 2019 validated successfully with 12.5.1 / 11.5.1.
This hasn't happened in a long time without lots of manual tweaking.
Insert a big thank you to all involved in getting this release done here. It is a a real improvement.
