Nice bike! You don't need to remove the right BB cup to clean it. If it looks okay and not pitted, leave it. Check that you have enough chain so that i hou accidentally shift to big big combination it won' break.
For saddle everybody has a favorite. I say get an inexpensive WTB Speed V. Comfy, not prone to water damage.
Recheck your seat tube And seat post diameters with a caliper. Your numbers are extremely unlikely.
