Is behind the ears considered covered ?
I guess it's debatable. Under the kippah is.

If anything, might be a shailoh. Hair that is normally covered, when touched might require washing hands

Is taking out peyos from behind one's ears for shmona esrah Halacha or a minhag ?

The first place I saw it was in the "Yesod V'shoresh Havodah" he says that because hair is a thing that has to do with "dinim" and having "hair" on your ears "kavauchel" hashem will not listen to you. one should remove it so hashem should "listen" to your davening. Hope this explains.

from what I heard the peyos when they're out work with the beard to make yud kay vuv kay. Not sure exactly how, just repeating what I was told.

It's interesting, I wouldn't think Yeshivishe guys would be into doing things that are Al Pi Kaballah...

AFAIK it's not common for yeshivishe guys to do this, it's the chasidim who are into it
I wonder what people who type "u" instead of "you" do with all their free time.

Chassidim have their Payos behind their ears?

There are those that do. Even those that keep it out, they make sure there shouldn't be any hair left behind the ear.

Yes many have "geknipped" which goes behind the ear

It's a bi-annual Shaalah. The answer usually ends up being that it depends if MS is business or pleasure.

The mekor is a Zohar Hakadosh in tikkunim; tikkun 70 daf 122:a. The Zohar explains that hair covering the ear is as if it's blocking the gateways of prayer-heeding in heaven (as, apparently, our physical ears here below resemble, kevayachol, the ears above).
