So I am trying out the DT benchmark. Thinking I wanted to use my EW character for the bench, but I see the only save slot I have is a previous version of my actual character. How can I import exactly what my EW character is right now into the bench?

Good morning! Thank you for posting in the Final Fantasy XIV Technical Support Forums.
Although the content of the subject are technical in nature, the issue you are describing does not appear to be a technical issue. I will go ahead and move this thread to “General Discussion" instead.
Thank you once again for visiting the Final Fantasy XIV Technical Support Forums!

But! Here is your answer "On the Character Select screen, right click/square on your character. You will get the option to Delete, or to Save Appearance."
And after saving appearance, you can find the file in Documents - My Games - A Realm Reborn. Copy the file and move it to Documents - My Games - A Realm Reborn (Benchmark). Then rename it by adding BENCH right before the number in the file name. Now you have a benchmark character with whatever exclusive hairstyle you may be wearing.
Or you can just create a new character in the benchmark by first loading the saved appearance.
