I'm not much further along then you but I did find a few things... 1) You can buy/salvage good quality 10.0 MHz transformers form networking equipment designed for 10BaseT Ethernet. These are designed for galvanic isolation and are used in old 10baseT routers and switches. Newer Ethernet works are 100 and 1000 Mhz but the older version was 10 MHz. I have a box of salvaged parts I removed from junked routers. These transformers are in wide DIP packages with 0.1" lead spacing.
2) Cheap 10MHz crystals need to be measured, sorted and matched by hand. And then you want to keep the temperature from moving around to much. Before I owned a GPSDO and a two channel scope I used to think the cheap crystals where all exactly "spot-on" 3) it is really easy to build a temperature controller using a $2 8-pin uP and a few lines of code. The 8-pin uP will have a few analog inputs and outputs and even pins left over for status LEDs.
