You can pick up 50-30 and 50-20 amp converters at most Walmart stores or from Amazon.

Yes the male end from the camper would plug into the converter. Luckily they only sell larger to smaller 50>30 30>15.
I don't think they make them the other way around.

Yes. Our setup from the faucet is pressure regulator - filter - white hose - brass 90 degree elbow (to keep the hose from putting downward pressure on the inlet valve on the TT)
