Looks great, though I'd guess that seam would be hard to clean and would trap resin, leading to drips and stains. Are you seeing any issues with that? I suppose you could always intentionally fill it with resin then expose it in the sun or a cure box until it solidifies and fills in all the cracks.

Aren't there any chemical reactions between the resin and the PLA?

I will try that aluminium tape to simply close the extrusion profile and see if it is practicable.

That looks really neat! I think I'll give it a try once I get my old FFF printer going again. Thanks for sharing!

This is my version with the aluminum tape.
So far it still sticks to the build plate.
