i.e. would it be possible for the flavour eigenstate of a quark/lepton produced in a weak interaction to be detected as a different flavour eigenstate at a distant detector due to the states propagating according to their mass eigenstates

CP violations mix d, s and b quarks and u, c and t quarks. The weak interaction partners of mass eigenstates of down type quarks d'. s' and b' are according to d, s and b and similarly up-type quarks, u′, c′ and t′, in terms of u, c, and t.

neutrinos can ‘oscillate’ or transmute from one kind (flavour) to another. But the rationale for why such an oscillation or change implies that neutrinos have mass.
