I cannot really see the pink field created by the Object Removal brush since it is pink. I would like it to be a non-red shade. Blue would be great as would purple.

How do I change this for elements? I have installed it to my macbook air

On the Mac side you can go to Apple>System Settings>Accessibility>Display and Invert colors the screen colors (top of Display settings) and/or use Color Filters (bottom of Display settings)

Seems like a MAC question.

Well, it's possible with Photoshop CC, but that doesn't mean it's also possible in Elements.

And on my monitor, the video from which the User Guide screenshot was taken shows the removal selection as a pink with a lower opacity than the actual tool.

I just spent some time looking for any possible setting in my system registry- Adobe has it really buried, couldn't find anything. I even searched for the color, when it's set to 100% opacity: color="#ec5aaa"

I've dinked around, even edited my sytem registry a bit (which didn't do anything).

What I've discovered is that you can turn on the windows magnifier then invert the screen colors temporarilly, then use the keyboard shortcut to turn things back to their original colors. It's a bit clunky to do, but it might help.
