Yes, same Rev John, except he wasn't a native of Mull if he was born at Kilmoluaig in Tyree. His wife was Ann McNeill but was she dau of Hector or Lachlan?
John appears to have been the youngest son, his eldest brother Donald "Fear Chilmoluthaig" was Factor of Brolas, later Tacksman of Kilmoluaig. Donald's son Archibald born c1734 is recorded as Tacksman of Kilmoluaig. Source NMB, "Chart of Children and Grandchildren of Charles MacNeil Ban" 2nd Jul 2013.
Rev John's parents were natives of Mull, but he was born at Hynish Tyree.

has anyone come across Rev John Maclean minister of Killean, Kintyre, married Annie McNeill daughter of Lachlan McNeill of Lossit House?

I would be very interested to know anything about the family and their children; what happened to them all and whether there is any written information to be found.

Does anyone have access to a long out of print book 'The Macleans of Borreray?'

There was another Rev John Maclean who was Minister of Killean. He was born about 1694 at Kilmoluaig Island of Tyree, s/o Charles "Tearlach MacNeill Ban" Maclean & Florence Maclean. Charles' father Neil was 7th of Boreray.
Rev John was married abt 1729 to Ann McNeill d/o Hector McNeill of Losset, their son Charles born c1731 Killean. Rev John died 17 Jun 1743 at Killean.  He was probably buried in the old part of Killean Cemetery, not far from Muasdale.
