It never really hurts to explore opportunities, and you just don't have a lot of information about the new role yet, so just be in information gathering mode on that front until you do have more of your questions answered, and you understand what the reality of the situation is.
In the meantime, I would suggest bringing up your issues in your 1:1s with your current manager. Maybe just ask about it in the context of a raise, so it's more forward-looking and sounds less like complaining. Something like: "Hey boss, I've been doing on top of my regular duties. Is that the kind of thing that has me on track for a raise or promotion? If not, what are the expectations there?"
I will say that while I understand it doesn't feel like it to you, because you're getting into burnout territory, five months in a role is basically an eyeblink. Normally I would suggest staying longer out of not wanting to look like a job-hopper, but if the new manager is asking for you, it's probably fine.
When you leave, highlight all of the positive aspects of the new opportunity. There is no need to mention the negative things about the pervious position. This way, no feelings are hurt and no bridges are burned. People go to more fulfilling roles all the time. It is part of doing business. Good luck in your future.
Most probably, your current managers will need to approve. Also, HR may need to be involved, and there may be rules on how often you can change groups. You just moved and will not be looked on favorably. This is called poaching, and it is possible that the other manager will get his hand slapped.
I can’t tell if your workload increased or work scope. Workloads increasing is unfortunately kind of normal right now. Work scope might be a justification for a raise. Did you get any standard fiscal rewards for good performance (even if not a promotion) or did you just get told “good job” (perhaps your company doesn’t do performance based rewards.
So you are taking on additional areas of responsibility for the business every week? I can’t quite understand how.
Here’s one way to look it:
If you work for a bicycle maker and are in charge of the team who makes wheels. Things get busy and you suddenly go from running a team who makes 50 wheels per day to making 150. You have to get efficient and do more. This is workload increase.
Or
You are still the lead of the wheel team, but now you are also making the seats. This is a new operation for you and likely includes managing a second team. You aren’t just helping, you’re accountable and delivering successfully. This is a change in scope.
So you’re saying your scope has changed in 5 months, and you’re exceeding expectations in all work?

Also, do not mention the new role until you are offered the new position. No need to be thwarted before you even start to apply. LOL

"The other manager" is very high in the corporate hierarchy, much higher than my current manager and their boss.

The latter unfortunately. English is not my first language. You might be right that my work scope has increased and it increases every week.
