Ok... check if that process is running. If it does, stop it. If it
doesn't, simply delete the .pid file.

Well, debian ships outdated versions of Bacula.
Not being a debian user, and not managing a Bacula instance on debian,
I don't know for sure, but I believe there is a repository or a
package available with more recent versions.

The above file looks like an artifact from testing catalog backups
that went wrong. Also, you've got some old bootstrap and messages
files left that could be removed. Apart from that, this looks good.

That's normal - file devices are only "open" when they are active,
i.e. the SD is currently using them.

Just a minor issue with how the SD reports file storage state.
I think if you try to run a job it would work.
