"The pot calls the kettle black" is a proverb that highlights hypocrisy, where one person criticizes another for a fault they also possess. It suggests that before pointing out someone else's flaws, one should reflect on their own shortcomings. The phrase is often used to call out double standards in judgments or accusations.
What is the equivalent oven temp for crock pot low temp?
There's not likely to be a direct correlation with an oven temperature. Most of the things we cook in a crock pot are in hot water, and contain things like cheaper cuts of meat. Assuming this is what you are cooking, I'd use 120 to 140 degrees C (250 to 300 F). It still takes a long time to cook some cuts of meat, depending on your preference. I like to give stewing beef about 3 hours.

No I don't think it would work because you need to bake them to get the brown crust that forms on top and in a crock pot there is too much moisture so they would turn to mush.
Why has your slow cooker got a rubber stopper in the hole on the lid?
The main pressure relief valve in the center allows steam to escape once the pressure reaches a maximum volume. Should that relief valve be blocked with food particles the rubber safety valve has a slightly higher pressure tolerance and will pop off releasing pressure as a failsafe.
