How does this change if it's paid first class (Alaska metal), or paid Qatar business class (partner) - any EQM bonuses here due to 75k status?
There's no bump in EQM earnings attributed to status level. EQM bonus for flying First will vary between 50-100%, depending on the fare class. Partner earning can be found here. AS flight EQM earning levels can be found here. The one other thing you might consider is getting the Alaska card through Bank of America. For 2024, you can earn 4K EQM for every $10K charged to the card, up to a max of 20K EQM.
