UTG+2 is unknown and SB is loose. I saw him once play 43s from UTG.

I think so, although the good news from an equity point of view is that the SB called as well. I think its unlikely you are ahead of the early position raiser, and everyone is aware that a flush draw is in your range at this stage, so I can't see MP raiser folding a better hand that often. It can't be that bad though.

No, I think the turn bet is good. I think a lot of aces and hands like KQ are going peel the flop, but give up on the turn. I certainly don't expect any paired hands to fold here, but you've got a bunch of outs vs. those hands. Pot is big, your hand is slighty over represented, lots of outs when behind...yeah, bet the turn.
