Get some pics. As long as nothing looks bent you are fine. Someone could have cut the springs a little too before you got it.

Sounds normal the springs are supposed to curl like that.

The more level to the ground the arms are, technically, the better. Yes its normal for the springs to have a bit of an arc when in the car
