Hi Michael, sorry, I got my attachments mixed up.

In the new file, source solid and path. In addition, as you proposed, offset curves (for four coplanar vertices).

I swept the corresponding edges along the offset curves (default settings), merged the resulting faces and deleted the "behind" faces. The boolean result looks very clean this time.
