I used a magnetic "wand" and pulled about a pound or so scale.

More info, please! I didn't think rusty scale would stick to a magnet.

A somewhat offbeat factor might be the routing of the fuel line. The stock routing takes fuel in close proximity to the water pump and the cylinder head.

Fuel line mod

Did the fuel line mod. And I think all is good.

I will keep the band-aid action in mind, but as I'm in an apartment, I don't really have the facilities to keep messing around with tons of coolant. So, I'll call it "clean living under difficult circumstances" until (or if) the overheating returns.
