OP
The leak was obvious as soon as the hose was compromised. The caustic mouthwash was INSTANTLY noticeable and VERY obvious.
I was breathing cautiously since the loop was gurgling. I had executed the "standard" procedure for emptying water from an SF2 sidemount unit, and when I returned to horizontal trim, got a couple of tentative breaths before "the event."
The caustic mouthwash was not in itself a particular threat... reasonably simple to deal with and manageable (perhaps on account of the cautious way I was inhaling)... but the after-effects were a pain in the butt.
