If you are calling the ECFMG nowadays you'll get this message
Sorry we are very busy because of the high volume of ERAS applicants
Thank you for understanding
Please call later

Here's the trick;

If you call again immediately after it, you won't get that message and you will be in the queue

Correct,
but you need to expect a long long waiting time
at least 15 minutes or so

Final medical transcript is specified by your college and it differs from school to school. The ECFMG will contact your school and ask them for the transcript. You should follow with your college. Am sure your college has done it for previous students and they should do exactly the same for you so that the ECFMG clerk does not develop any suspicious thoughts if he/she sees any difference from previous transcripts.

I know it isnt the right place 2 post such question but I am unable 2 reach some1 in ECFMG 2 help me

I am filling application 4 step 1 and there is a question regarding clerkship, do they mean the extra-curricular rotations (like electives and so) or those that are usually done during the final 2 years of college?
