Here's one move list I worked out for h7-h5. It's probably not very precise and it involves a lot of carnage. It also seems hopelessly optimistic....
13.Qg3-h4 h7-h5
14.Bf1-e2 Ng4xf2+
15.Qh4xf2 f4-f3
16.Be2xf3 Nd4xf3
17.Qf2xf3 Rh8-f8
18.Qf3-g3 Rf8-f1+
19.Kd1-e2 Bc8-g4+
20.Ke2-e3 Qd8xg5+
21.Ke3-d4 Ra8-d8+
22.Kd4-c4 Bg4-e6+

I wouldn't worry to much about the bishop coming to e2, but put a question mark behind the reply 14. ..., Ng4xf2+
Why not
14. ..., Nd4xe2
15. Kd1xe2, Qd4!
or
14. ..., Nd4xe2
15. Ng1xe2, Qd6
(black is only two moves from proper castling, but the pawn at f4 will be under attack, but black has some countermeasures!)
Looks a lot more promising and a clean cut, don't you think? Maybe h7-h5 is an option after all.
But I think black has to look closer at white playing 14. g5xh5 (en passant) before going down the route of h7-h5. i leave that to you guys...
