Bitmain said NO to rising the limit to 128MB in November.

Anyway, this isn't a trouble: no >32 MB block will be mined in a near future, so raising the limit is not a problem. However, new OP_CODES could end in a chain split.

Only if miners actually include transactions with new op_codes into blocks. The split will happen if part of miners use Bitcoin ABC with canonical sorting, and part do not.

Where did you see that Bitmain said no?

Can you copy and paste or link? The only thing I have seen is someone else saying he doesn't support it. And it looks like that post was removed.

so if it will be a split, bitmain will mine their own chain?

Saying no to 128MB limit doesn't mean there will be a split. Only if a block >32MB is actually mined by nChain, and other miners do not follow it, then we have a split.
