Jul 31, 2019 at 10:12 comment added user143777 My last question remains unanswered: in viewing $CH^2(S,1)$ sitting inside $CH^2(S\times \Delta^1)$ by Bloch, are these cycles null-homologous? That is to say, does $CH^2(S,1)$ live in $CH^2(S\times \Delta^1)_0$?
Jul 31, 2019 at 10:08 comment added user143777 Bloch's identification $\mathcal{O}(Z)^\times = CH^1(Z,1)$ in (viii) is proved in section 6 of his paper. I gather that it should essentially take a function $f \in \mathcal{O}(Z)^\times$ to its graph in $Z \times \Delta^1$, which is what I meant when I described the inverse of the edge map using graphs of functions.
Jul 31, 2019 at 10:04 comment added user143777 Assuming a priori that it is an isomorphism, the inverse of the edge map is as follows, if I got it right. Start with an element represented by $(Z_i,f_i)$ in $\oplus_{x\in S^{(1)}} k(x)^\times$, we can remove enough points on those curves so that $Z_i$ become smooth and $f_i$ have no poles nor zeros on them, so that $f_i \in \mathcal{O}(Z_i)^\times = CH^1(Z_i,1)$ by Bloch (viii). This is then sent to $CH^2(S,1)$ (where we have removed some points from the original $S$) via the displayed map $CH^1(Z_i,1) \rightarrow CH^2(S,1)$ of your answer.
