The crossmember is fine for jacking just try not to damage the paint.

It takes suspension loads and towing loads on some derivatives - it's strong enough.

I don't have the torque figs to hand but would that Mr Haynes would know. I do know that they're quite tight...

Front cross member under the towing eye thingy is fine for jacking as said above.
