There is no 'lower chest' per say. Decline bench really shaped my lower chest, cables didn't do much.

cable crossovers are good for shaping the middle of your chest like the cleavage the space between the pecs.It hits a little lower if you do them with the cables coming from the floor

There isn't really a lower pec, the pec is one muscle, hence I don't do any decline movements (exception cabble cross if that counts)

If you are trying to add some shape to do some heavy dips they work better then the decline would
