Hero calls [$160.40]

with the intention of getting all-in on river. i.e I call if he pushes and push if he checks (I’m more interested in whether Hero should fold or play, but let me know whether you like call/push too).

Hero ? Call or fold?

I can only guess he had the flush, but it isn't even close. Call. He might have a set of Ks (or a wheel wrap draw), you have a low draw with protection, and are getting good pot odds.

Whether you push or call on the flop is really immaterial, but you can't fold.

You know before I wrote this I thought it was a clear call, but after thinking about it and analyzing it, maybe not. There are few hands that would come over the top like that on that flop. K/K/X/X, A/2/Xc/Xc, some two pair combination. Your not in terrible shape against 2 out of the 3 when it comes to high and against the one that you are in bad shape high wise your low has a better shot a being the only one. The problem of course is that you need the low to hit the low and badly. Definately a tough decision, but I would just call and hope for the best. But even I am not so sure after thinking about it. I think a fold would not be a terrible move either. Both seem like good decisions.
