My short interpretation as someone involved heavily in lead acid storage as a career. Your battery is likely fine. It has had some factors that will shorten it’s life based on what you have said, but without real testing (expensive), it could be several months or a year or more lost. The...
The wiring is not there. I pulled the panel in the passenger footwell. There is a fuse box which should have all the cabin fuses under the passenger panel and an empty harness raceway. At least the hole is cut out for the footwell lighting.

Newer engines have a higher operating temperature for fuel economy reasons. Your engine is operating in the design envelope the engine was designed for so I wouldn’t be worried.
Take it to a PDR shop and let them tell you what they can do for the hood. You can pull dents out over matte paint, like everything else, details matter. Let them tell you if they can or not.
