having issues drafting a part

I am trying to make an engine bracket and having issues getting it to draft. It is a curved surface that I made by extruding along a curve. I'm not sure if that is causing the issue but I'd rather not remodel it, but if that's the only way I,ll do it. Ive also tried incorporating it into the extrude but I don't get the option. any quick advice is appreciated. thanks!

Please attach your model.  Open in Fusion 360, select the File menu, then Export and save to your hard drive.  Attach using the attachment section of a reply post.

I hope I am understanding your request.  I think you want the complete body to have a draft angle on the thickness edge.  I added a 5 degree draft angle just to make sure you could see it but I think you only want a 1 degree draft.  If this is correct, you can change the draft angle by editing the taper angle of the marked Extrude operation.  Model is attached.
