Mumakil itself would have 350 health, 8 attack damage and 5 defence. A hired one comes with southron archers on top of it (their amount will be decided when the size is decided). Possibly a southron mumakil "driver" npc like the ones from the movies will also come, if that npc is killed then the mumakil will wander around aimlessly (unless angered) but the archers can still shoot.

Mumakil will naturally spawn in the far harad jungle, maybe also in the cloud forest.

Now this part might anger many people:

Mumakil CANNOT be tamed or ridden by players. They will ONLY come as ań unit for southrons, no tauredain mumakil riders. I think it's mentioned in the mod lore that tauredain only used mumakil in the hardest battles when they would have been doomed otherwise (correct me if I'm wrong).

Mumakil will also spawn in the southron mumakil tamer structures, occasionally in some sort of moredain structures since I'm pretty sure moredain bring the mumakil to southrons, also southron mumakil riders will uncommonly spawn in southron invasions.

I built a quite derpy looking example of a mumakil out of blocks. The mumakil itself is 6 blocks tall, with the southron thing added it's 11 blocks tall. There are 10 southrons on top of it, 1 driver and 9 archers. The archers have quite alot of trouble noticing the gondor soldiers below though.

Personally i like the idea of riding one and they could have the same dammage manuever as rhino's and maybe you could make it to where multiple people can sit on the mumakil at the same time(then it would make an ultimate party bus)
