Am I correct on that?
If I don't have a UA metal, how can I get an all LH metal ticket on 016 Stock? UA codeshares for the shorter flights?
Generally speaking, travel agencies are required to respect the presented choice of validating carrier, so must plate an all LH itinerary on LH stock. The best way of getting that on 016 is to book directly with United.

ETA: I guess I can just call in and have an GPU added to a LH flight # on an LH ticket?
Do you mean PQD? PQM earning is identical regardless of ticket stock.
Yes, you can GPU an LH-plated ticket.
