Re: Patterns along a series of surfaces
Here's a working example (I think this is what you were trying to achieve):
a few tricks I used:
The extrude is up to an offset face that is a separate surface entity so it can be selected in the first extrude, and the selection will propagate as it goes to a next face, because it's looking for the surface.
Reapply features enabled
used a split edge to make sure the start of the curve along which to pattern is centrally located above the first instance. that's where the tangent direction for the pattern is defined from, and causes the deco instances in the round corners to have more or less the proper extrude direction.

Lefty Flip workflow if I've ever heard one. Do your mates and assembly once and then apply Lefty Flip to all the relevant studios.

Mirror the parts in a part studio, then assemble them independently
