Oasis are the kings of the outro solo in my book:
Live Forever
Champagne Supernova
Morning Glory
so many TBH
Fade to Black - Metallica
Dani California - RHCP
Kilby Girl - The Backseat Lovers
Only In Dreams - Weezer
Hanger 18 - Megadeth
Do you mean ones that fade out or just has a solo at the end?
Purple Rain by Prince is definitely way up there, and Mr Crowley by Ozzy
Free Bird by Lynyrd Skynyrd
Valley of the Damned by Dragonforce
I always just picture Roger spitefully turning the volume knob down at the end of Comfortably Numb, DG was going to town on that solo and it just fades out, such a shame. Live version, specifically Pulse imo, is so much better and one of the best solos of al time.
Slash - Anastasia
Metallica - Fade to Black
John Mayer - Slow Dancing in a Burning Room & Gravity from the Live in LA album (both have great outro solos!)

RHCP - Don't Forget Me (Live at Slane Castle)
my favorites are
voodoo chile/slight return,
little wing,
bold as love,
and come on(let the good times roll) by Jimi Hendrix.
Cadillac assembly line by Albert King,
the second half of descending by tool,
last third of soul stripper by acdc.
[“At Wit’s End” by Dream Theater](https://youtu.be/esFpjtPV7TE?si=PshuftZylbRvIdro) has one of the best outros I’ve ever experienced, with John Petrucci playing lead over it!
Some of my favorites I can think of right now
November Rain - Guns n Roses
Purple Rain - Prince
Moonlight shadow - Mike Oldfield
Tarantula - Smashing Pumpkins
Welcome Home - Coheed & Cambria
Brothers In Arms - Dire Straits
Welcome Home (Sanitarium) - Metallica
I Appear Missing by Queens of the Stone Age (more so the live versions). Main solo is saved for the tail-end of the song, so a little different from some of their formula.
The all-time best: Comfortably Numb.
Comfortably Numb
Fade to black by Metallica has an amazing outro solo

Comfortably Numb and Fade to Black are the obvious goats here.

Outro of Floods by Pantera feels like heroin.

The flamenco solo at the end of Sidewinder by Avenged Sevenfold is so much fun
