This is the link to the plaster magic site.  I used the stuff on my rental and thought it worked really well.  Areas that I used in on have been crack free for about a year now.

If you do give it a try yourself look into Big Wally's Plaster Repair Magic.  I've used it and had pretty good results.  Lots of Youtube demonstration videos you should check out

Challenging location, you have a lot going on in that spot. Are you convinced it's the gutter? could it be the roof valley? one of the windows? or the wall to roof transition? I've found it useful to determine when the leak is active- does it leak after every rain, only driving rain or heavy rain. only active during certain times of the year.  Can you open up the ceiling some more? water can travel great distances inside a building before it drips to make a stain, might help in determining where its coming from.  I can see how you got different opinions on the problem there is really nothing that jumps out at you.  I would spend some time on investigation. 

Also, you have a challenging location in terms of access.  Along with previous experience as a roofer I now work in construction safety.  Please consider your safety before doing any repairs on the roof in that location.   Definitely, don't walk out on the gutter system without some form of fall protection.

You're all good.  Roofer used valley tin. Other details that are sometimes used in a valley are a weave pattern or California Cut.  I personally like the California Cut, but this detail is just fine
