Also, one startling thing is Isshin knew where the Vizard were all along. In fact, he even knew what their reiatsu was like, since he knew that one of them met up with Ichigo at the exact moment he was busy brushing GF aside like an ant. This saids that he already knew them and where they were all along so when he was still a shinigami, it would've been too easy to tell Central 46. This saids he really didn't think they were guilty or he had some relation to them and was trying to protect them from being found out and could've been found out and had his powers sealed.

Also, as a side note, if the Vizard were actually in those draining bodies, they would become human a long time ago and also would've been undetectable while their powers were being drained(which those gigai do) Therefore, they are in regular ggais like Urahara in that they can use their zanpaktou and powers while being in a human form like Urahara.
Well, there is the possibility that Isshin was a part of the Gotei 13, hence his fragmented captains robe. This probably means that he knew Aizen a long time ago and was probably informed by Kisuke that Aizen had the Hōgyoku once Ichigo got back. Since Isshin knew that Ichigo had become a shinigami he probably also knew that Urahara was training him and was informing Isshin of what was happening in the Seireitei while his son was on his… trip. That doesn’t mean that Urahara told him the truth about the Vizards; that’s not in Urahara’s style. He tends to hide the truth from others, the same way he did to Ichigo.

Yes, Isshin can detect a Vizard’s reiatsu; it’s probably very different from that of a Shinigami or a Hollow. He most likely saw the difference in his own son’s reiatsu too and probably connected the dots, or already knew. It doesn’t say anything about whether or not he thinks they’re guilty. Remember, he refers to them in derogatory terminology. So, that leads viewers to believe that he doesn’t know much about the subject. I believe that he probably is trying to figure out what they did to become Vizards, just because his son is one too. He’s probably putting two and two together and seeing that Hollow + Hōgyoku = More developed/powerful Arrancar which probably means Shinigami + Hōgyoku = Vizard I don’t think Isshin is as stupid as he portrays himself to be.

Where is it mentioned that the Vizards are in the ‘draining gigai’ you speak of? They’re just in regular gigai aren’t they? Rukia is the only one that has been con into wearing one of those. The Vizards, I believe, probably, left Japan and went somewhere else into hiding to train and that whatnot. They most likely came back when they either noticed Ichigo’s unnatural reiatsu or Urahara contacted them saying that Aizen had made his move and asked them to help Ichigo/ the world in general.
