Parsed the headers into rows for the dynamic replace. Split the doubles first, then used Regex in the formula tool to create the other fields. Multi-column formula with ignore errors instead of replace().

A very tricky challenge.

 

I always avoid RegEx when I can so opted for formulas instead.

Tried to not use regex and ended up with lets just say what an only be described as an extended workflow. Regex next time for sure.
