When we, as Catholics, visit an SSPX church, are we supposed to do what we normally do when we visit a non-schismatic Catholic church (e.g., genuflecting towards the tabernacle if the blessed sacrament is present, blessing ourselves with the holy water near the entrance) apart from receiving holy communion? Thank you.
 
One could argue whether or not they’re truly in formal schism, so one could also argue about whether or not you ought to treat visiting their chapels as you would an Orthodox Church.
 
is there actually such a thing as an SSPX church; where are they ?

would go & observe

Yes, there are. The SSPX has a website where you can search for locations. I was surprised to find how many there are. I don’t know how well attended they are.
