Almost all of the worthwhile things I can think of have already been said, but I will note that if you manage to write something coherent and up to the usual EPU quality involving Wolverine, most likely your version will be the one I think of as 'the real Wolerine' since at this point he's got more alternate backstories than Krang the Conqueror. Well, that, and, and he's possibly the single momst oveerexposed Marvel character, thanks to the X-Men line's popularity and his status as official team badass. Thing is, despite the not liking much of anything official or unofficial about him, I still like the character, as such.

As for the prospects of Magneto having managed to make the trip with the rest of the MU crew: As you said, it would be a bit hard for him to be powering the process and inside the TARDIS at the same time... but there's more than one version o Marvel Universe out there, after all. A possible explanation that I could buy (in an adventure story oriented setting like UF, at least) is that since he was the one powering the show, it left a distictive stamp on the resulting energies, and when Griffin and company tried to punch into the/a mainline the local Magneto felt it, and happened to be nearby enough to investigate why a poerful spike of his own energy was coming from somewhere besides himself... and just happens to get caught in a secondary effect that drops him relatively nearby, in dimensional travel terms. This could mean anything from popping up in an alley on the far side of New Avalon and wandering off before anyone got there to check it out, to a couple of star systems away, but as you've noted, Erik is smart. It wouldn't take very long wandering around in his costume and not getting any more odd looks than any other person in obviously offplanet fashions, seeing the occasional alien going about their business, to realise that there might be some fundamental differences in the local attitudes from what he's used to having to put up with.
