1.which feed linkcodes should i use? normal or hosted?

I'm not sure what your asking since all feeds are hosted. I have seen some sponsors use some interesting terminology so my suggestion would be to first look at your own feed in a browser and then you can look at the sponsor feeds and easily determine which to use.

Since its a sponsors feeds, attribution to the original author isn't necessary (in my opinion) therefore you can leave it set to NO. If you do set it to yes, it adds a link back to the plug-in author as well.

I doubt they care. Plus if its a new site, you may have not even been indexed yet.

Thats the one weakness of WP-Autoblog. If the feed has a category in it, it will post it to that category but if it doesn't, then the script simply puts it into the default category on your blog. I typically will make a generic named category and set that as the default.
FeedWordPress does let you organize feeds into different categories but since it doesn't work in 2.1 (yet) thats probably not an option
