IMO:
1) RKB for ♥s. Cannot be for 6 keys as minor is unknown. Not ask minor at 5 level - 2N is available for minor ask.
2) Minor ask or raise of ♥s - either way, strength is implied. See #3. Should be </= 6 losers (assumes x, Kxxxx, Kxxxx, xx is a suitable minimum Michaels - tune for your preference).
3) I favor pass or correct to intervenor's minor. To Play.

As far as 2 and 3 goes, this is a matter of agreement. Either 4NT asks for the minor and 5♣ is natural or 5♣ is pass/correct for the minor and 4NT is some form of enquiry with a good hand. The first of these is much more popular in practise although I would not like to say it was better.
