For the joint between a flat garage roof, and the upstand to the house
wall continuing above, what are the pros and cons of real lead flashing
v.s. the heavy duty self adhesive tape with a coat of primer on the wall?


Well, lead should last a lifetime and is *very* satisfying to work...

To what depth should the pointing be raked out for the top edge of the
flashing/tape?


With lead, enough to jam it in place securely before re-pointing, so about
an inch.
