This 60 nH is the series-inductance (Ls) of the resistor, not the
parallel-inductance (Lp). You need to calculate the (frequency
dependent) parallel equivalent first before you start paralleling the
two inductors.

Yes, you can do a 'true parallel combination' on any parallel
combination, but it has to be a parallel combination to start with. Get
your circuit analysis basics right and everything falls in place.
