Ah, that was going to be my question.

I cut out a section of drywall at the top - brought in the cable - and
fished it down to the new outlets.

For the outlets, I cut out a hole just the size of the box, and then
screwed the box to the stud.

I did stable the cable at the top since I had access. But next to the
box, I did not have access, so I did not.

Hi,

1. Is it permissible to install outlets in the same bay that also has
heating system pipes?

Yes



2. Is it permissble to fasten two cables to a stud with a single
staple?

Yes



3. I have a cinterblock wall that is framed with 2x4 sole and head
plates and 2x3 studs so there is an inch of space between the
cinterblocks and the studes. Is it OK for a wire to run behind the
studs?

Yes, but they still have to be stapled



Just outside the electrical boxes or in several places along the way
as well?



If you are fishing in an existing wall you don't need to staple them

What you did is fine, you'd only have to staple the cable every 4.5 feet and
at boxes, in open walls
