i have a p41 that the exhaust port has a divider is that normal for that saw
The shop manual says 155 psi on a new saw.

My 41's and 51's have the divider in the exhaust port. I would assume all of them did in those two series.

how is it with the 36 thinking about trying to get one. is a 42 to much for the saw in 3/8
I cannot give you an informed answer about your P61. I can answer based on my FarmSaw. For many many years I ran only a 20" bar. 1991 we bought this place and I was cutting many large fir trees. I stepped up to a 24. The 24 is slightly nose heavy, going to a 28 I think would very difficult to control. I think that's true for your (wish it was mine) P61. These gents can suggest what length bar provides the best ballance for your saw. I'd use that guidance.

my farmsaw is now just a parts saw some i can use for my 41 the rest to someone who needs parts cosmeticaly good but p&c no good rod bearing no good no coil
Please don't toss that coil. The bake at 200° F for 12 - 16 hours resurrected two for me. The starter if good, would make a FarmSaw owner very happy.
