I figure, I'll change the bad valves, all the seals and lap every valve anyway. Should I consider getting the head cleaned and have a pass done on the mating surface since I've come this far?

Aluminum head? I always run a circular pattern from the inside out. I'd send the head out to a machine shop and have it tanked, checked for cracks, decked,valve guides checked,especially # 3 changed,valves cleaned up, 3 angle valve grind,all new seals,( they'll come in the head gasket,valve grind set). That head around here will run about $250 at a machine shop.
