As always, Naruto ain't mine.

Yamanaka Naruto
[Collected scenes that refused to gel into a story]
[Scene 1 – School Presentation]
.
"Uzumaki Naruto." Iruka said and Naruto looked up. "If you want to sit this one out…"
"Nah, I'm good." Naruto grinned. "I found out who my dad was."
Iruka paused. "Really?"
"Yep." Naruto said eagerly. "The Old Man didn't know, but I worked it out."
"Very well then." Iruka shrugged. "Come up and give your speech."
Naruto took a quick look at his notes and shuffled them into a neat pile before scampering to the front of the classroom. Looking round, his grin widened.
"I've been told that no-one knew who my parents were, but the clues were there." He said. "It took me quite a bit of research to find but I believe that I have finally found out who my father was, and in doing so I have discovered that I have three half-siblings, although none of them are Shinobi, as well as a counsin who is in this class. May I present my father…"
Naruto held up the large copy of the picture that he had found and the entire class went quiet, until Mizuki gasped.
"That… that's Yamanaka Ishidi!"
"WHAT?!" Ino screamed in shock. "There's no way Naruto's my cousin! He can't be!"
.
[Scene 2 – Hokage's reaction]
.
Hiruzen leafed through the folder that Inoichi had brought to him, then he looked up.
"What is your opinion of this?"
"Going by what he discovered as well as what my brother was like, It is certainly plausible." Inoichi said, hiding a smile. Although he was not one of those who was officially knew Naruto's heritage, he had deduced it himself some time before and had been irritated at Hiruzen's inability to ensure Naruto had been properly looked after.
Now it was time to make a stand, shielded by his apparent ignorance of the truth.
"In fact, I would say it is more than plausible. There were no Senju males in Konoha during the time when Naruto would have been conceived and the only other clan with blond hair is mine. Therefore, I agree with his conclusion and have already arranged for him to be moved from his apartment, which I have seen, to my house where he will be given a bedroom of his own and proper clan training."
Hiruzen stared at him, then shook his head.
"No, I…"
"Hey, jiji!" Naruto shouted as he cannoned into the office. "Didja hear?! I'm part of a clan now! I have family!"
"Indeed." Inoichi said, snagging the hyperactive youth out of the air and placing him by his side.
"Hey, Uncle Inoichi, what are you doing here?"
"Just going over the arrangements." Inoichi said with a smile. "As I said before, you were very clever to find out what even the Hokage couldn't."
"Yeah, I'm awesome." Naruto grinned. "I wonder who my mom was though?"
"Knowing my little brother, it could have been any of a thousand women." Inoichi sighed, playing on Ishidi's reputation as a womaniser for all it was worth. Hiruzen remained silent and Inoichi felt a momentary pang of sympathy for him. If Hiruzen claimed that Ishidi wasn't Naruto's father, he would have to explain that he had lied to Naruto for years about not knowing who it really was and thus he would lose Naruto's respect and all hope of guiding him. On the other hand, by going along with Naruto's claim, he was publically confirming that the Yamanaka clan was taking in the village Jinchuuriki, thus raising them from a minor clan to potentially the most powerful one in Konoha and upsetting the political dynamics.
"Anyway, let's head back. Naruto need to re-pot that plant of his. How he managed to keep it so healthy in such a small pot, I have no idea, but it does mean he'll be able to help with the garden."
"You've got a garden?" Naruto asked, wide-eyed. "Cool!"
.
[Scene 3 – Family training]
.
Ino collapsed against the trunk of the tree, breathing heavily as she wiped the sweat off her forehead. Looking up, she watched as Naruto, once again, launched himself at her father, trying to land a hit on him.
"…how?" She whispered in disbelief and Naruto bounced back up from a landing that would have temporarily robbed her of the ability to breathe and flung himself back into the fray. "How does… he do that?"
"He doesn't give up." Inoichi replied as he motioned for Naruto to stand down and get a drink. "Of course, his stamina levels are unreal, as are his chakra levels. I'm going to need to start him on water-walking and work down to leaf-balancing."
"He can't do leaf-balancing." Ino said, remembering the time when the leaf on Naruto's forehead had exploded.
"Because he has too much chakra." Inoichi reiterated, looking at where Naruto was performing stretches and cool-down exercises. "He has so much that it affects how he learns, he learns by doing, not by reading about it."
Ino nodded slowly. It would explain why he was the Dead Last.
"The fact that his teachers taught him wrong didn't help." Inoichi added, causing Ino to stare at him in shock. "His Taijitsu style was a bastardised version of the Academy style and all wrong for his body type. I may need to call in Maito Gai for this."
Ino winced. She had met Maito Gai before and his… unique wardrobe still sent shivers of horror down her spine.
"Hey, cousin." Naruto said, appearing beside her and startling her into emitting an eep! "Here's a cup of water for you, you look kinda sweaty."
"Ladies don't sweat." Ino stated as she accepted the cup. "We glow."
"Really?" Naruto asked, brushing his hand across her forehead and looking at it. "Inoichi-sensei, is this sweat or glow? I thought glow was different. Why are you laughing?"
.
[Scene 4 – Shopping]
.
"I'm thinking… Blondaime." Ino said as she walked around a nervous Naruto, examining him closely. "And that has to go. Bright orange? Do you want to be killed?"
"But orange is awesome!" Naruto protested and Ino shook her head.
"No cousin of mine is going around looking like a forest fire if I have anything to do about it! Anyway, didn't you say that you wanted to surpass the Yondaime? Well, you'll need the clothes for that. Come on!"
"Hey, wait!" Naruto shouted as he found himself being towed out of the house and down the street. Even channeling chakra into his feet as he had been taught for the tree-climbing exercise failed to slow Ino down, although it did leave a pair of near-parallel grooves in the road.
"Iiiiinnnnooooooo!"
"Stop whining." Ino commanded as she pulled him into a clothing store. "Now, you'll need proper clothing, something like my dad wears but with a bit of the Yondaime thrown in… hmmmmm, nope, nope, too bright, too loose, too tight, maybe, nope, nope, I wonder… no, forget it, it wouldn't wo… NARUTO!"
Naruto jumped and dropped the jacket he had picked up from the pile in the corner.
"Ino, I…"
"Alright!" Ino sighed. "I'll make sure you get some orange in your clothes, okay?"
"Thanks!"
"Here." Ino commanded, handing him some black trousers and top. "Put this on."
"But you said…"
"You'll get orange, don't worry." Ino said soothingly. "That's just the base, it'll make it more… I can't believe I'm saying this… awesome."
Naruto hugged her, then picked up the clothes he had dropped and scampered into the changing cubical as Ino blinked several times, then she turned and, smiling, rummaged through the clothes that had caught her eye.
"Changed!"
Ino nodded and threw a pair of orange-rimmed arm protectors at Naruto.
"Good, now put these on. Excellent, now this, it'll help protect you."
Naruto shrugged on the armoured over-vest, then he grinned as Ino held up a rusty-orange sleeveless high-collared Haori with black flames rising from the bottom.
"Coooooooooooooooooool."
Ino grinned as she helped Naruto to don the Haori, then she stepped back and nodded.
"Grow your hair out and wear it in a ponytail and it'll be perfect." She announced in satisfaction.
"I agree." Inoichi said from behind her and Ino leapt in shock.
"Daaa-aaad! Stop doing that to me!"
"Although you need a few kunai pouches with that." Inoichi added as Naruto struck a pose in front of the mirror.

Further notes.
The story was planned to have Naruto's real heritage discovered by Mizuki, who claims that the Forbidden Scroll contains a jutsu that will reveal Naruto's mother's name. Naruto gets the scroll, but having already been taught the Kage Bunshin by Inoichi, unrolls it more and comes across the Shiki Fuuin seal and the notes, including who made it, who used it and upon whom.
Naruto is quite skilled as Inoichi, seeing his potential, arranged to have him trained to his strengths, including using the Kage Bunshin teaching trick to its fullest potential as planned by Nara Shikaku.
Due to his chakra-control issues, Naruto never learns any of the Yamanaka clan jutsus.
Addendum - I have since managed to locate only 2 stories where Naruto becomes part of the Yamanaka family, they are:-
1) The Tale Of Naruto Yamanaka - id 9424924
2) The Fox Among The Mountains - id 6760857
I only encountered them after writing these scenes.
