What order is an orchestral score written in ie I have to arrange a piece for oboe trumpet and piano what order should they be written in on the score?

The oboe would be on the top, the trumpet below it, and the piano on the bottom. This comes from orchestral scores: they have the woodwinds on top, brass below that, percussion below that, chorus (if used) below that, and the strings on the bottom. That's a good rule of thumb to follow. If you are using a music notation program like Sibelius it will do that for you automatically.

Is the oboe d'amore higher or lower in pitch than the orchestral oboe?

The oboe d'amore is in A; the oboe is in C. The oboe d'amore is a minor third lower in pitch than the oboe, however typically music for the oboe d'amore is written so that oboe fingerings may be used (in other words, the note A is printed as a C, so that the player uses the oboe fingering for C but the note sounds a minor third lower).
