In the HKG-SFO-SEA direction, you won't have access to the BA lounge:
* TSA will not allow you back in the international departure area.
* AS is not part of OW. Even if it is part of OW, BA lounge agent will likely only allow you if you are an OW-SA/EM (instead of as a F passenger).
* TSA will not allow you back in the international departure area.

If your AS SFO-SEA ticket is booked in either A or F (A = redemption, F is obvious) then you have access to the AS Board Room on the B concourse at SFO.
Passengers ticketed in First Class in either F or A class have access to the Alaska Airlines Board Room included in their ticket (excluding reciprocal agreements with other airline clubs or lounges). Passengers traveling on an upgraded ticket booked in U class do not have access.

2. If AS were part of OW, OP would of course get lounge access by arriving from an international F and connecting to a domestic OW FLT. Elite status should not matter in this case.
