might be wrong  >>

Your instincts are correct.   This merely creates another place for something to
fail.

<<   b) is it ok , advisble or a BIG NO to instal swivels to the 2nd
stages ? if
>>

If you route the hose properly there is no need for a swivel.   Again, another
place for something to fail.

<<  c)  if i were to get a ss backplate , the weight itself would be
sufficient
for me to sink.  But this means that i cant dump these in cases of emergency  >>

Have you purchased a canister light?   This is the ditchable weight you can use
in an emergency.
