cut your soffit to fit the curve, and then make your L shaped facia and cut slices in the leg that holds the soffit, so that you can bend it around the curve. This may or may not look good depending on the curve. May look better with azek instead

is it possible to post a pic. ?
you could square it off with j then run j back to back on the and 45 it on back to the round part till the rounded part gets small enough to use one pc of soffit, around here i can get 16 in. wide soffit but you could get small enough to use 12 in.

Kind of hard to exsplain , wish i could traw pic of what i mean
