As you said id doesn't remove the periods on the title or publisher. Is that just not possible on file import?

No, it's not possible. File import can only get the character string in the filename, it's not designed to change those characters.

Is it possible on a bulk metadata search and replace?

Yes, do it that way.

I'm pretty impressed you could do the varaible title lengths.

Titles always vary - the trick is to find things on either side of it to match. In your case, I relied on the year digits and three characters for the month abbreviation. Those were stripped off the end, and everything in front was stripped off to match isbn, etc. What was left was title.
