Yes, it does require LOS. If that is broken, then the spell would be as well.

>Does the +2 target modifier for sustaining a spell apply to the Drain

No target number modifiers apply to drain resistance tests.

>Is it possible for someone to do Ritual Sorcery on his/her own?

Yes.

>[snipped "what do detection spells tell the caster"]

See the detection spells section of the SRII rulebook.

>Can you use an expendable fetish for one which requires a reusable one?

Interesting question. The way we've always played it is that spells taht a
fetish exclusive can use either expendable or reusable fetishes and get the
bonuses as according to the fetish type. Some people play that you must
declare the type of fetish needed for the spell when you choose the spell.
AFAIK there is no official ruling either way.
