For silver members granted lounge access, they should get access to the PP lounge and not the MH/OW lounges.

OP is OWS, so can visit the MH lounges (which is superior to the PP lounge)
Are you sure? Have you actually been to the lounges at 2am before the late QR flight? QR gives J pax access to the PP First lounge, which has a la carte dining and a full bar service. By 2am, the MH Plat lounge is long closed, and on the J side, the bar and showcase kitchens are closed, the food not refilled, staff are cleaning around pax, and the aircon is turned low/off. This is about the as bad as the main PP lounge (next to the SQ lounge) though at least it has a bar, but the PP FIRST lounge (next to the EK lounge/opposite CX) is superior to the MH offerings at this time of night, assuming you want to eat or drink anything, or sit in aircon without someone vacuuming around you. YMMV of course!

Anyway, for the OP, go crazy and try all the lounges before midnight (MH, MH Regional, CX) if you're not going into the city, and definitely try and get an invitation to the PP FIRST lounge if you intend to use the lounges after midnight. This post suggests that you might get access in Y on QR.
