Angel want to talk about it? He acted like he saw something but later shrugs it off.
Q1:
There is too little information available offering a solid theory. But the few pieces available may give a lead or hunch. I think the 'most solid' theory - based on the opinions on this forum - is that Randy (and maybe even CJ's water-pumping station crew) got involved in the rescue of Michael. After the explosion the pumping station building was destroyed. We know that the Behemoth, which might have had a good chance to go for Michael, because Michael was not able to leave the building, chased Riley, Angel, and Datu. So Michael was "safe" to a certain degree, but also caught under the rubble of the building.
So it could be that the remaining figures of Randys group might have saved Michael. Or (!), that comes to my mind right now, the Behemoth accidentally opened a gap for Michael to get away, while the monstrosity followed the other three survivors; so Michael could have had a chance to flee. But I think this would have been too easy. And there needs to be a reason why Michael did neither write down things in his log nor tell anyone yet about his survival.
Which leads to your Q2:
I am not certain on this; but I guess pretty early Angel has accepted that rank does not matter anymore; he has accepted Michael as kind of a leader and also accepted that Michael likes to keep shit to himself. Angel asked Michael once what has happened at the pumping station or how Michael survived, but Michael refused to say anything and excused this with having other things to do right now; since then it was more important for Angel to have Michael alive again than asking how this was possible. So, in the end just a practical approach by Angel ...
Best wishes!
