So basically you are gonna run 2 backtests right? One for 3-bar stop,
and a second for the 2/3-bar stops.

To setup the 2/3-bar stops, I wouldn't modify the delay. I would
leave the applystop as is, and just create a new Sell statement.
Maybe someone else can think of something more elegant.
Something like:
NewStop = BarsSince(Buy) == 2 AND C < Ref(O, -2);
Sell = [your stuff];
Sell = Sell OR NewStop;
