Why can't he ask? He's interested in knowing if they failed to Alert or if the 1NT bidder decided to pull a penalty redouble, isn't he?
As I said, I don't necessarily agree with that argument. I do know it has validity.
As I also said (much earlier), you can attack the legs of "you should have protected yourself"; and the "without prejudice" leg should be easiest. Good luck with that.
EBU if it matters

He's unlikely to pull it to my 4+ card suit (I think his 2♣ was also alerted but not 100% sure)

Was this really "obvious misinformation"? You didn't seem to think so at the time the call was made, or I think you would have protected yourself.

The problem was that I wasn't sure whether I could ask when it was not my turn, and in that moment while I was thinking about that, P-2♥ hit the table and I lost the chance to protect myself. My only chance of rectifying the situation was with correct info directly over the XX.
