Nice pictures. If you create a circle then switch the surface type to polyline, you'll see a gap appear. you can then use Surface->change-vertex-order to move the "gap".

Alternatively - draw a line in a roughly circular shape and then use Vertex->spherize to push the vertices into a circle.

The order of selection for extrude-along-path matters. Select the surface you want to extrude first, then the path, then select the function.
