From the Star-K website:
https://www.star-k.org/articles/articles/seasonal/357/the-busiest-day-of-the-year-the-laws-of-erev-pesach/
Indeed some treat gebrokt as Chometz mamash but I don't I don't burn gebrokts on Pesach nor do I kasher my pots after making knaidlach on the last day. I go thtis Psak from a Rav.

ALOR but IIRC my rav said yes. He also said that R Shlomo Zalman said that a bechor can join a siyum (with a minyan) over the phone.
Not sure where you got the minyan part, but regardless it is definitely better to make your own Siyum (veven according to RSZ).
