I found it. Around August 1990. The boy’s name was Stuart Lockwood. He was about six years old. The link has one of the pictures of him with Saddam. As you can see his arms are cross and he is defiant to Saddam.

About the helo I do believe it was a anti sub type from the British ship. I saw video id by Iranian sources as video from the capture which showed a British copter shadowing the group of Iranian ships with the Brits taken captive.

Very interesting.

It would make sense a destroyer would carry an ASW helo, but I wonder if it did have some surface warfare capability. Certainly the destroyer did.
