I would say it is still okay to use. Not quite base rock but probably not teaming with life. I woul use your rock and see if a local aquariust would trade you 1-2 pounds from their tank to help reintroduce stuff like coraline and bugs.

If it were me, I would put the rock you want to use in new water, like you're curing it, and in a week or so, test it for ammonia, nitrite, nitrate, etc. That should tell you whether or not it's good to go.

Yeah I think it could be "seeded" with some good rock. I've just gotta get together a light.
I read on GARF about smashing up a rock and sprinkling it but I feel that's going to give crud on the bottom rather than seed it.

To seed I would just use a couple of small pieces from an established tank. Also you can get some coraline scrappings off of someones tank and sprinkle that around. I wouldn't smash up a rock to sprinkle, it will just make a mess and disrupt all of the bacteria/bugs that live in the rock.
