Pretty normal to have one side a tad lower even with stock springs. The only thing you can really try is rotating one the rear springs 180* to see if it helps.

Probably not. Just make sure the bottom of each rear coil is clocked in the same position on it's perch. You do realize that when you are sitting in the car, it will be level.

The pass rear is typically lower, its easily fixed by taking the spare tire and jack out.Strange that its the front though.
