Deconstructing a whoopie?

Sure, the eye should be good on its own. You could either pull the butt splice out the end or just cut it off and tape it. The eye shouldn't be relying on the loop of the whoopie for holding power, seeing as the eye is siezed in a properly set up block and sling setup anyways.

I was more concerned with the center of the sling, the adjustable part. if I pull that out and use it as a dead eye is the sling compromised in anyway?

Pull the back splice apart before pulling the bury out. I wouldn't hesitate to use it, as long as it hasn't been overloaded.
Whoopies are useless.
 
Yes, the lump on the end of the tail, take that apart and pull it through. How "used" is it? Chances are the fibers were more distorted when splicing it than they will be after you take it apart!
