Yes having a dip tube like this is equivalent to having the outlet at the bottom.
2. There is a female fitting in the top of the tank I hand already fiberglassed in [you dont see it in the pictures] . Use this fitting to put air in the tank...
This will work. Actually it does not matter where you put the air into the tank even if the air inlet is below the water level because the air, of course, bubbles up through the water. However if you want to vent the air out and you have the air inlet below the water level you will get water coming out of the air inlet. To prevent this you need to pump a second internal pipe going up so it ends above the water level.
Don't put your air inlet below the water !! Just use the inlet you fiberglassed in for your air inlet and air outlet. Hopefully you made large enough ( like 3/4 NPT or larger) or else it will take forever for your table to drain.
