So I wonder, how does Gandalf/Olorin actually appear, during this fight? Still some wizened old man, or does he get to go as a mighty warrior?
At the beginning of the battle, he appeared in the eyes of the company to be the old gray man. One who had seen the light of the trees would've been able to see his true form. The Balrog would've seen his true form and recognized him as an equal. The body was just a form so that the peoples of Middle Earth could perceive him.

Does he get to employ his full arsenal? I would think, yes.
Absolutely.
