I would not be as concerned with the overflow can as I would if you saw it when you took the radiator cap and seen it in there. Any oils or whatever that float to the top of the radiator are getting sucked into the Overflow and being trapped. So after the years and 100K miles I'm sure there will be some stuff in there. I'd bet your motor is fine, but you are due for a flush!
I would flush the system and remove the overflow and clean it thoroughly. It's part of the battery tray, I think it's held in with 2-3 bolts. Then refill and monitor, but I think your okay.
( More quick, cheap mods - while your flushing the system it's a good time to do the throttle body bypass and a 160 Thermostat install )
I agree with your plan, pick up another block, take your time and build it then do the swap.
