Interesting premise. Looking at Gamera vs Gyaos, for example, I could see the kid being excised completely, perhaps replaced by a plucky reporter or photographer, as in MvG or GTTHM. The only time we saw a child protagonist in the showa Godzilla series was All Monsters Attack (I wouldn't call the kid in Megalon the protagonist), which felt like Toho's response to Gamera, so I don't think Team Honda would have kickstarted the Kenny trend if they had control of the Gamera series' initial direction.
The artificial blood fountain would definitely be out, perhaps replaced with a similar idea implemented in a more military fashion. I could see hardware similar to the wasp venom sprayers from Dogora, or maybe some kind of magnetic or sonic device used to disorient Gyaos.
The violence would be toned down too; Toho kaiju traditionally don't eat people, after all. That's an aspect I've always found jarring in the Gamera movies.
