There is a weird thing you can do at the ARC SA-X encounter after PB's. Bomb wall as you would normally without being seen ie not power bombs. Then lay a power bomb in a certain place, not sure exactly. Try at end of MB tunnel. There are two conditions to doing this:
1) The far right power bomb blocks that the SA-X normally stops at must be destroyed.
2) The SA-X must not see you, and the music must not change.
If this is done correctly, when the SA-X reaches the wall you bombed, then it will just continuously screw attack up & down. Even PB'ing, being hit by it or going in it's sight will not get you detected. If you can survive being hit by it's Screwing, and get in the lower MB tunnel (the dead end), it will just continue. However, rolling to its right will get you detected when it lands on the floor, and the routine continues normally. I also noticed that as it is jumping up, the screw sound effect will not start until it has reached the height of its jump. I apologise that I cannot nab vid or shots, but be sure to credit me for discovery IF this is not already known.
Has anyone managed to make it into the room after the NOC SA-X encounter with it still chasing you? It will just run back and forth when you get into the MB passage. I think my first glitch at least should get on the Stupid SA-X page.
