Welcome to our Forum. I'll be pleased to comment and complement you for your commitment to safe sex. Despite what you may have seen on the internet (always a bad idea- while I am sure that nearly all who post on the internet mean no harm, statements there are often taken out of context, are misinterpretations or sometimes are just wrong) or from the doctor you spoke with (who was wrong), all of the activities you describe represent safe sex and as long as your condom was intact. And if your condom looked intact, it was - when condoms break, they break wide open. There are no STIs other than perhaps transmission of herpes type1 the cold sore virus that can be transmitted through kissing including French kissing. Those who maintain that such transmission is "theoretically" possible need to put their theoretical statement into perspective - the likelihood of getting an STI is just as theoretically likely as your likelihood of being struck by a meteor falling from space.
With these general statements, let me address your specific questions:
