1. You ask your exam centre admin staff to request it. There may be a small fee to pay depending on when you make the request.
2. Edexcel will automatically use the best of your two results to determine the final grade as long as your entries have been done with the same Unique Candidate Identifier (UCI) number. If you are unsure about that. speak to the exam centre.
3. I can't speak for every university worldwide but universities are generally OK with A levels taken with different examiners. This is standard practice for candidates in English schools.

what does “best of two results mean exactly” because i repeated two units (paper 4 and 5) twice

If you take a unit twice they will use the best result obtained for that unit.

If you take a unit 3 times (or more), then they will use the best unit result from the two most recent attempts.
