X.
Given that I am fairly bal. I would go with X, ... T/O or optional,
if I hear 4S, I will bid 5C.
With kind regards

you could get your ♥K ruffed in 5♣, but the odds are that it is PARD, of which we know at least 6 cards, who ruffs 
so I'm joining the 5♣ bandwagon. lol

Double could work but so what, it's a total guess and you have 5!!!! card support! Bid 5♣. Sometimes you even get to double 5♥ instead.
If only you had waited a few days before posting this I could have called it prediction of the year.

when 6C is on C:1-1.

yep usually when partner has a maximum and then you turn a doubleton in a singleton, his hand gets better by a trick.
... and I can prove it with my usual, flawless logic.

Not many polish players would open it with 2C.
We for sure would open it 1C (and treat as 15+ natural opener).

Both 5C and 4H were making. We played 4H doubled :-)
E might find the 6H lead, which gives N a reasonable chance of going off...
