The halogen won't fit your HID headlights. So that's a no.
And the HID ballast on your fog probably got wet so it went out. Could be a simple balast going out on aftermarket HID kit.

yes that is probably what happened. As far as the headlight not pointing down before going to buy another headlamp you might wanna search on youtube or in these forums and crack that headlight open and try to fix. Its not hard I have had to do it to replace ballast and to get decoders in for my DRL's.
