I say just pull that out and drop in a 350, no it may have not gotten terriably hot but no valve covers so you also have water in the engine not to mention melted plastic and ash from anything that burned, 350>305 all day long!
Wow sorry to see her crispy
From the looks of it your going to have to tear her down to the short block.
If your lucky the heads might be reusable with new valve seals an good cleaning.
I'd get a new intake carb set up from summit(they have some fair cheap set ups)an a new distirbuter all non computer controled(most of its melted)replace all hoses an vacuum lines plus anything that melted an should be ok.Depending on what got in the engine.
The non cc hei an carb work better in my opinion.I hope you can have her up an running soon
