Is there just a way of uploading the CORE files?

ie keep the current images/settings/template edits in place, but just upload certain files needed for the upgrade?

That's what happens in a normal upgrade. Images, settings and templates that have been modified are not touched.

Super. So its just the 3.7 mods that may or may not work for 3.8 is the issue

You will also need to perform the necessary mandatory template edits.

Download a DB backup, and backup the files. That's a complete backup.
