Type N will be fine since I assume it's above grade.
If your going to fill it with mortar I'd take all the foam out. A thin layer of mortar on the surface will soon crack. The difficult part will be removing all the foam. You may need to chisel all the way around the hole to chip away the adhering foam and expose clean brick. Do any insulating you want in the interior wall.
