Treat only the outside edge of the cut, near the bark.

This is the plan!

Notice in this picture how the sap is ONLY on the outside ring!
(Just as you said.)

Otherwise, wait until the leaf growth is going crazy,
then spray the leaves. (with RoundUp, anyway)

This is good advice for most people - but - for me - it
won't work as well ONLY because the poison oak is so thick
that I can't get roundup (glyphosate) to the plant except
at the edges - but the plant is 40 to 50 feet deep in places.

A pro sprayer would have no problem with that. Thay can easily spray the top of
100' trees.

When I'm done reading, I'll summarize for all to benefit.

You forgot to research fuel-air bombs.

I suspect your best bet is to hire or rent a good truck/trailer sprayer, and
kill it off during the growth stage(s).

I would also suspect that a 400' garden hose might not leave you much pressure
at the end, either for a garden hose end sprayer, or maybe even for a pressure
washer.
