Answer 1

SPLimitedWebPartManager manager = web.GetLimitedWebPartManager("default.aspx", PersonalizationScope.Shared);
if (manager != null)
{
    foreach (Microsoft.SharePoint.WebPartPages.WebPart webpart in manager.WebParts)
    {
        if (webpart.Title == "some title")
        {
            // Web Part found!

            break;
        }
    }
}
