KindleUnpack has an option to dump the raw content of a Kindlebook if you really want to see what Amazon has done to your original epub!
On reflection, it did occur to me that perhaps Calibre, which I had not used before, might have made these changes. However, the book I uploaded with the stripped down opf seems to behave itself.
I think I will still upload the book again with everything in place except with the cover.xhtml file removed.
