Help drafting a curved face

Hi all, I have a curved face that I want to create a triangular draft on, but I cannot seem to get the surface to split using a curve that clearly splits it. Any help would be great. If anyone can kindly, go further than split to actually create the draft, it would be awesome. Thanks!
Picture of what I want to do:

Thanks!

did you try move boundaries on the split surface (on both ends)? if the surface ends just touch the face edges, rounding errors may cause this error.
BTW: your part seems symmetric. tip: do all of this on half the part and mirror at the end. model all asymetric stuff after the mirror
Hi again. I forgot to add this and had to wait for my comment to upload. Here is the model in question. I will try to extend the curve.
Look in the roof folder and part studio 2. Thanks!
Your link didn't attach. Give it another go. The forum software can be a bit temperamental.
Thanks jelte and Ste! I am not sure why my link came up a ! on the reply. Here is the link, but I think I figured out a method using a perpendicular profile and a sweep!
