I was thinking that rather than putting a new hard drive in my IIgs and reinstalling everything, I could look at the hard drive images in an emulator and see which games are on them and what the folder structure looks like so I duplicate it on my IIgs.

I usually use a stand-alone version of the ActiveGS emulator for IIGS emulation on my Windows 7 laptop.  A right-click after starting the app brings up the configuration screen, and you can mount the images there and reboot.  You should be able to download the app from http://activegs.freetoolsassociation.com/
