In the Level 4 test, playing the major scale in all three octaves is a requirement. In the requirements, but you don't mention putting it to a metronome, although you do mention that in the lessons. What are you looking for, in terms of rhythm?

Also, is there a lesson on the site that teaches the blow bends, so I can work on that 10'?

Hello Marc. A metronome is not needed for LOA scale submissions. Blow bends are covered in Bending Study 6. Have a great weekend.
