With that I have a half-half situation: either I get the metadata right or the book, but not both. I'll see if I can import twice and merge.

I guess I was wrong then and those files are not falsely labelled ePub. Would've been too easy anyway.
Best solution I can think of right now is importing them as ePub anyway, since you said you were able to convert those files. Do an ePub->ePub conversion, that ought to give you valid files. Read the metadata from file name instead of file content while importing, and before converting, do a bulk metadata edit reading the cover from the file. That should get you nice metadata and readable books with the least amount of work, I believe.
Hint: Try this on a subset before committing all books
