Sounds like long before this particular range formed, once upon a time a different range formed from continental collisions that created those old rocks. The current orogeny exposed those older rocks.

Yes. It’s hard to all sort out. Those rocks were once the intrusions under volcanos. The same can be said about the granite most places.
