1) I'm assuming it's a MacPro, are we talking about the front or back ports? 
Front are easy to replace, back are soldered to the motherboard as far as I know
2) Try holding D to boot from the hardware diagnostic disc, they've always come 
up in startup drive selector for me
3) Sounds very plausible indeed, especially as the FW port is powered

Have you tried an SMC reset? Power cable out for 30 secs then reattach. How 
about resetting the PRAM?
