possible to dump nand with kernel 8498 to retrieve dvd key?

Yea stupid question, but i've been reading and searching a lot about jtag, dvd keys and cpu keys.
my situation is that i bought a xbox from someone claiming that system doesn't turn on and it has a flashed drive, so i fixed it. I also noticed the drive had an extra piece metal sticker stuck to it, like the drive had been switched. (the metal looking tape that tapes down the dvd drive to the xbox in the front) so i tried playin with the drive with an original game, it gave me the "please insert game into xbox" screen, but i read that this happens to some people. now it doesn't read games, just gives "Play DVD". I want to change dvd drives, but want to retrieve the dvd key the the motherboard just in case the drives key doesnt match the Motherboard's. so once again, it possible to retrieve a cpu key from motherboard with a kernel of 8498?

I read that the patch just stops you from messing with the kernel, am i right? I got that from this site.

if that's true, i can still dump/extract the cpu key from the nand, right?
i can get my dvd key with the help of this tutorial

Any help would do, its a little frustrating searching for partial answers.
thanks
