So, I'll need a new clutch (duh!) and probably flywheel. I'd like to go for a lightweight flywheel, less rotating mass basically - any downside to it?
For the bellhousing: yes, probably repairable - actually it could have the grooves likely filled in by something (???), but until it's opened again not sure what to do...
Not the best of days....

I'd call Jim @ Power Torque Systems
He sells only OEM clutch's and flywheels. But for the money, get a fidanza lightweight flywheel for about $325 shipped.
Downside to the lightweight flywheel, NOISE!! (sounds like a rattle can)
Jim's # is 641-342-7446
As far as powershifting with only 1k miles? You didn't cause it, it is the quality of the clutch / T/O bearing.
