If you mean 2x1, there is no way you can use that, it's just not strong enough laid flat. Vertical, then the bolts will split the 1" width.
No, I have never used, or needed any. How much over-lap will there be?

It’s 3x2 is have spare
If you need to introduce a slope, what about cutting some firring strips (long cheese wedge shape), and attaching along your rafters? as they do for flat roofing.
If you have a circular/table saw, you can get two strips from a length of wood.

More questions sorry, is there such a product which coverers the top part of the wall and where the roof meets up please? I need an L shaped profile at a right angle but not even sure what to search for? Guessing this will be plastic and I will use the same gunk I used on the roof overlaps and also the roofing type screws to fix it in place?
TIA
