The "October Surprise" stuff has, allegedly, been roundly debunked. Except, of course, there's this Occam's razor problem about why, exactly, Iran would choose to release the hostages almost the moment Jimmy Carter left office. I don't know who "consortiumnews.com" is. The last link is from the Walsh report, though it's not clear what it has to do with the "October Surprise" stuff.

Focusing on GHWB's presence was probably a mistake in that particular investigation, or what investigation there ever really was. I'm sure there's a story to be told somewhere in there, but it's pretty doubtful it'll see the light of day in plaintext form anytime soon. I doubt even the files W is locking down tell for the foreseeable future tell anything like the real story there.
