Keccak256? Isn't that just SHA3 with a digest of 256 bits?

No, it's slightly different from SHA3-256. There was a tweak for standardization.
I'm unsure. I think this came before sha3 was defined so some parameters may have changed. But the core is essentially that.
There are minor padding differences but that's it.
