<3) Are the AFM files for the Apple LaserWriter built-in fonts available?

They come with the Adobe Transcript software.  The AFM information can also
be extracted from the printer itself by running a program that was developed
called getafm.

<4) Where can I get an up-to-date spec. for AFM files?

You can try Adobe.
