I would expect that hull with that motor to be up around 50 or a bit more. Wondering if the motor is sick or if the hull is waterlogged (heavy).

If you only use the acid where needed and quickly rinse it off, that minimizes the effect. But you're right, it still probably makes it more porous. I had very good luck with a 2-3...

I think it's actually an "it depends" and you have to test and see what happens. Lots of them disappear on their own. Some within hours, some not. I've seen some that took years on the hard to dry...
