Create a label as a sub element of your frame 3:

imgcont = QtGui.QLabel(frame3)
imgcont.setObjectName("imgcont")
imgcont.setStyleSheet("imgcont { background-color: transparent; }")
imgcont.setGeometry(0, 0, 720 * xscale, 900 * yscale)

Then set the image to appear in the label:

myIconMap = QtGui.QPixmap( "pathandfilename.png")
imgcont.setPixmap(myIconMap.scaled(imgcont.size(), Qt.IgnoreAspectRatio, Qt.SmoothTransformation))

The graph image displays ok but alas it wont update. I am sshpassing the image every 5mins to the clock (all working ok) but the clock only displays the image it has on boot up no refresh. Any ideas.

Thanks Garry

You'll have to create a routine to update the image every so often or apply it inside one of the existing loops.
