Welcome back!

So, you said you didn't know if it was the beanstalk or the vendor that was moved, it was the vendor. In the original version, if I can recall correctly, you had to get the bean *before* heading into the deku stronghold. IIRC it was from the deku vendor on top of the roof of the boat tour building or something.

Also, there wasn't an owl statue at the entrance to the swamp. Originally, it was up the waterfall just outside of the deku stronghold. So you had to go through the swamp to get to the owl statue. However, it did at least make it convenient to re-visit the deku place later on.

There's another picture you can give the old dude for an interesting reward, although it does come off as kind of blackmail...

Also, in the actual original, all of the ocarina buttons were the same color... you used the yellow d-pad for four of the five notes. For the GC version, however, they had to adapt it which had a more colorful outlay.

Kind of a short episode today, but given the demarcation, I felt it appropriate. You want a full episode, probably two, for the actual dungeon itself, and this is a great cut point.
