First of all, and sauce would seem to differ considering he plays 63o here pre, but IMO pre is likely a fold. I feel like EP and BU have such a large ex-showdown equity advantage, that attempting to realize 16.7% (before rake, after rake probably nearer to 19-20%) equity of a 4 way pot is likely a tall order.
We know raw SD equity doesn't particularly matter, but here is 74s's equity in 4-way versus reggish ranges for EP, BU, and SB:

Equity Win Tie
MP2 29.91% 28.99% 0.93% { 22+, A6s+, KTs+, QTs+, J9s+, T8s+, 98s, 87s, 76s, AJo+, KQo }
BU 26.34% 25.39% 0.94% { JJ-22, A8s+, KTs+, QTs+, J9s+, T8s+, 98s, 87s, 76s, AQo }
SB 26.18% 25.25% 0.93% { JJ-22, AQs-A8s, KTs+, QTs+, J9s+, T9s, 98s, 87s, 76s, AQo }
BB 17.57% 17.20% 0.36% { 74s }
So you'd need to realize actually more than 100% of your equity in the hand, from the second most disadvantageous position out of the four. I honestly think even if the SB is a donk, so much of your equity gets stolen from reg EP and reg BU that you may still lose calling this hand, particularly with 5ptbb/100 .5/1 rake being what it is. Making this call is essentially making a statement about BU and SB that they are playing such unprofitable hands and spewing so much that you can beat their strategy, and the rake, with an inferior hand to theirs.
Anyway, that out of the way, if you're trying to build GT-informed ranges, you probably need to c/c the hand in spite of his sizing, maybe even because of it, as it will widen your calling range and make you more exploitable to a polarity advantage from BU's range. Or perhaps it is possible that you should choose a less vulnerable flush that is non nut for the c/c line, something like KQ or QJ. Allowing him a free card with his 9h9 type hands could mean the difference between check/raising this hand and check/calling with QhJh.
On the turn I think you have an easy fold to his shove considering that you're at the rock bottom of your value range (66 is higher than this because it has more equity versus his shoving range). I cannot see how folding this can be very exploitable, your range is heavy in nut flushes, king high flushes, top sets and middle sets which are never folding. Sure he blocks a lot of that if he has the Ah, but he also blocks a lot of your bluffs when he holds that. So in effect, the character of your range shifts to being very value heavy when he holds the Ah, and that allows you to fold much stronger hands.
