Plus a couple of Skin Patrol 'live' recordings on youtube. I'm guessing this is part of the 'charade', unless their actually is a band called Skin Patrol.

As far as I can be humanly sure Skin Patrol did exist (as did the song Rock Section). The fact that the actual song is as mythical as it appears to be ensures it weaves its way into the One Three One universe quite cunningly - further blurring the distinction between real-world and Cope's alternate novel timeline.
I suspect these 'real' elements were chosen with a great deal of thought given the implications of their appearance in the book. They certainly add to the 'charade' whilst being seemingly actual fact.
Interesting that the article linked below suggests that the song Rock Section was 'received' during a seance and possibly from the dead spirit of Jim Morrison.
Of course, in One Three One, Jim Morrison is alive ("and successful") which only adds to the mystery (from our point of view).
