It should though not 100% offer an ability to check in via BA for the EI flight or tell you to use EI's system. As you manually added a seat this may mess things up or make it work better, I don't know. I do know for EI tickets which a seat edit is performed by an agent 72 hours or nearer to departure it may block OLCI.

If it doesn't work the self service machines should be happy to check you in. A human may be required if your destination has specific visa requirements
Well this is not working
The countdown clock on the BA MMB page went to zero at the time of the EI Flight minus 24hrs and immediately changed to a countdown for the onward BA Flight
I can check into neither on BA
Using EI it says contact travel agent and offers no option AT ALL

Absolutely ridiculous
