Does the reservoir need to be higher than the pipe outlets form the SC ?

That would be hard to do... the SC is the highest point in the engine bay

So no it doesnt

I did think that, Is it hard to bleed the air out if the tank is lower that the SC if you were to take the top off the tank does the coolant not want to flow out as it is lower?

No. As long as the res is higher than the pump, the pump will eliminate any air.
