Okay.

Do I need to look at the reply headers and craft the ACL based on that?   Can you write and ACL based on the original request from the client?

There is no difference in the ACL themselves beyond what data they have
available depends on when in the transaction the directive using them
occurs.

When Squid needs to decide something there is usually a directive to
assist with the decision. reply_header_access is indeed the one to use
when deciding what HTTP reply headers get delivered to the client.

What you need to do is find an ACL which identifies the particular
client. eg 'src' ACL is simplest if the service IP is not shared or
changing. Otherwise you may need some other detail visible in the HTTP
request headers or TCP state.
