this may sound dumb, and I am not trying to insult you, but do both headgaskets and order the complete upper gasket set for the motor, take the heads in and have them tested for any cracks.

To get stuff outta the oil pan you usually pull the drain plug out, sorry to sounds like a smartass!

I would get it all back together and buy some coolant flush and run it thru there, maybe do it a few times.
