As far as I know, what you want is not possible in calibre without help. You could check the
Action Chains plugin thread which should be able to run those actions.
Once you have converted a file, it has a stored list of the conversion options and you will need to remove those before any changes will be applied. You can do this from the Edit metadata in bulk dialog. See the Remove stored conversion settings for the selected books item in the attached image. Every so often, I will select all the books in my library and apply that action.

When I tried it, it seemed to send the original epub and not my modified epub.

The ePub version should be the one that is sent. AFAIR, original_epub is not even an option in the file formats list. See the first page of the KTE configuration dialog for that list. The original_epub will be used by Polish, ModifyEpub, etc.
Personally, I remove the original_epub file after I check the modified file and am happy with it.
