I'm planning to buy new MLXe-4 with 3 linecards (all three are 8x10G SFP+). MLXe-4 comes with 2 hSFM modules.

What will happen if one hSFM module fails? Will I lose some bandwidth to some/all linecards?

I just want to compare SFM redundancy with 2xhSFM vs 3xhSFM

Due to the nature of the Clos switch fabric you will not lose connectivity, only some forwarding capacity between all linecards if^H^Hwhen an SFM fails.
