Depend upon your location,time of the year

This depends on your latitude, the date, and getting Anilam's declination correct. It is just SOUTH of the celestial equator, as is Alnitak.

That depends a great deal on your lattitude and the time of year. Not enough information in the question to give an answer.

At the horizon somewhere. Generally in the east.
