Except, again, a corpse can't resist on either of those fronts.

Doesn't matter, still happened.
That's bull, but sure, accepting your premise of "the soul's autoimmune response" on a purely artificial human, that still leaves Rin transferring her crest to Shirou as well as Surgical Procedure which both show it's definitely possible to ignore that entirely.
That, and IIRC it was stated one can transfer magic circuits if both subjects in question are synchronized and willing, and a corpse can't exactly resist on either of those fronts.

He's a freakishly robust homunculus.
No soul and all that.
No soul and all that.
Why not, though?
They're obviously at least partially physical constructs objects given that Shiro could get an arm graft from future Shiro and the magical circuit lineups were a plot point.
Then you have the worms, crests which can be transplanted despite being bunches of magic circuits, Rin transferring her magic crest to Shirou that one time, pedobait Jack's Surgical Procedure is implied to be at least partially mundane, and spiritual surgery can manipulate them too. I'm sure there's several other examples I'm missing, as well.
On top of that, it says explicitly that Rasputin's internal furnace allows him to integrate materials he swallows into his body. That seems like a sufficient loophole to be able to jack magic circuits. You did say Fate was all about loopholes, didn't you?
I'll accept getting nothing from bird because I misunderstood how familiars work apparently but I would argue that the theory is still sound.

Just to make sure there aren't miscommunications, eating the familiar and treating it like a mana potion is fine, but the familiar does not have Circuits installed, and even if it did, they could not be integrated into Rasputin.
I'm assuming you just meant it was being used as a mana potion sorta thing, but I felt the need to clarify that just to be sure.
Aren't all familiars made by integrating magic circuit material into an inanimate body?
Also internal furnace mang you let me have that to begin with.
BTW, that familiar is hollow, there's no way Seyrun could make one entirely out of silver, since it would weight too much to fly, 2 pounds is the most it weighs.
It still wouldn't fly.

Rasputin bit into the warped metal of the familiar remains. Silver. The second most ductile of the transition metals, after gold. It boasts the highest electrical and thermal conductivity of all metals, but also the fourth-lowest melting point at roughly 962 degrees Celsius. While it does not corrode much, it does tarnish easily- a shame, as when polished it had one of the highest reflectivity indexes of any metal. One of the first five metals discovered by man. If Rasputin fashioned this into rings or pendants, he could likely pawn them for quite a bit. He silently thanked that strange, cowardly girl for his unexpected windfall.
Rasputin took another bite, his teeth sinking easily through the artificial bird. Though he himself possessed strength and toughness beyond that of a mortal man, Rasputin had no doubt that any reasonably-strong human being would need, at most, a sturdy hatchet to swiftly dispatch one of these familiars. An exceptionally strong man could likely do so with his bare hands.
Rasputin began driving again, snacking on the familiar remains as they moved towards town. His throat tingled as the dying prana suffused his body and became his own, reinforcing his magic circuits with those that had been inserted into the familiar. It wasn't much, but every drop of power counted. When he had finished the larger half, he spoke again.
"You are a strange sort of vampire, comrade- but then, I am a strange sort of immortal! I suppose we will have to be making do with the talents we hold."
Rasputin began devouring the second half of the familiar remains as he drove into town, polishing it off as they pulled up to a small steakhouse. His head ratcheted itself to face Lancer.
"You are hungry, yes? The internet has told me of this place. They are having seventy-two ounce steak, but is free if eat quickly!", Rasputin let out a hoarse, barking laugh, "But that is not being a problem for men like us, who are not tiny Japanese, yes?"

I thought you said vampires were ding dong bannu because reasons, though.
Also is prima hostia meant to be from that magical unicorn piledriver powered by catholic buttmad in melty blood?
EDIT: Whoops looks like I was late to the party on that one.
