Cutting out a large section of iron pipe and replacing with pvc. The rubber couplings with metal bands seemed the way to go. Joining iron to pvc

Yes that will work. You want to find a rubber coupling that has as close to the same ID as the iron pipes OD. Then make sure to get PVC pipe that matches the OD measurement of the iron pipe.
Go ahead and spend the money for a nut driver to tighten the hose clamps instead of trying to use a screwdriver.

You may need to get a brass compression fitting to put on the copper pipe, the get a threaded PVC coupling and screw into the compression fitting the go from there by cementing PVC to PVC.
