If I play as space marines, and ally in units from the DH/WH, can I give them a Drop Pod or have them start inside a LRC, even though that unit is not present in/from their codex?

No they can't take a pod as they don't have the option in their entry. A WH/DH character + space marine unit could go in the units pod but otherwise no.

If it's a Heavy Support Land Raider/Crusader/Redeemer then they can start in it. If it's a terminator squads dedicated LR/LRC/LRR they can't start in it but could embark 1st turn.

From what I read of the DH/WH codex, they can take LRs as a dedicated transport in their codex.

Only the Godhammer pattern - the normal one, though

DH can also take a LR Crusader. But the assault cannons suck :(
