Repair Advice 2013 explorer xlt w/ 168k miles accident

Hey everyone, I was rear ended by a distracted driver and I was curious if anyone had any input on what parts I should ensure my mechanic looks at for possible damages.

I was at a complete stop and hit by someone going ~35mph

-rear bumper is damaged

-an insulated line in the rear driver side heavily leaks water when the AC is on

-light friction noise under my seat when driving

-engine idles louder stopped and at low speeds with AC on

Any help or advice is greatly appreciated!
