Here's my guess. 1) you have a SUG with everything else except that 1 specific path. That SUG is deployed already to the two existing collections. 2) You stated: "The exclusion patch that I need to apply is to some systems in the “Software-Updates-Delay” collection. I have a SUG created for this patch in question and a collection “Exclude-Patch” which includes the systems that I cannot deploy this patch to. " So, SUG #2, this one contains that one, single patch.
Things left to do: 3) Create another Collection, called "Software-Updates-Delay excluding Those Special Systems". In that Collection, you'll have two rules. INCLUDE "Software-Updates-Delay" collection. EXCLUDE "Exclude-Patch" 4) Target SUG#2, with that 1 single patch, to "software-updates-delay excluding those special systems", with the same deadline as SUG #1. And there you go.
