I booked a cruise with Holland America's Oosterdam and my confirmation said the cabin was a Category VF. I just printed out my boarding docs and I see the cabin is Category VB. Is there any difference between VB and VF and should I say anything to get it changed?
Sounds like you got an upgrade. I'd check the positions of each cabin if you have a cabin # to see if you are in a desirable location or deck. I also look above and below the cabins to see if there is a noisy area above or below which could be a problem either early or late. We always try to get midship. Good luck!

The stop is called Ercolano Scavi.
It is closer to Naples than Pompeii; I did it coming from the other direction (Sorrento) but I'd say it's about 20 minutes.
Can't answer re: the taxi, but the train is pretty easy. Once you get off the train, you'll walk downhill down a major road with the train station at your back. This road basically dead-ends at the entrance to Herculaneum in about 4-5 blocks -- you can't miss it.
There's no museum onsite.
Yes, you should have enough time to do both Herculaneum and the Archaeology Museum.
I have a lot of info on Herculaneum, included notes for a self-guided tour (having just done it a few weeks ago). If you want to give me an email, I'd be happy to send it to you.
If you still have your info, could you possibly email it to me? I'd love to go there on our day in Naples from the cruise ship and also visit the museum in town. email is Almost Lucy11 @ g mail dot com (again without spaces). Thanks a bunch!

As to things to do in San Diego, we only have a day and a half next week before boarding the Oosterdam and have chosen a "Flagship Cruise" covering both ends of the bay. Got a deal from Groupon on it. The other thing we are doing on our whole day is getting on the Hop On Hop Off Bus Tour, riding the whole route for 2 hrs. then choosing one or two places to explore more. Would like to eat in Little Italy and see Old Town, both of which are HOHO stops. Try their website. I envy you having more time! Good luck!
