Do I have to do a conversion for every version of the Kindle App and Kindle hardware?
Thanks,

For TOC you need to generate an inline TOC inside the document. ePub typically has a TOC that is in a separate file, However you can also generate one inline. Sigil can do this as can Word, Atlantis, and other word processors.
KF8 files geneated by Kindle should look fine. version 7 files (the old mobi format) do not understand styles at all. The Kindle translation can deal with some CSS styles by converting them to something that the mobi format can understand. Calibre can also do this and is better at some things but worse in others as you have noticed. It matters greatly how these things are generated in the source file. They may look the same to you but a program may treat them differently.
