Maybe you should share what your microdosing theory is. I mean, I don't even know what your anecdotes say is supposed to happen.
You take d-amphetamine everyday; but you're worried that an amount of l-amphetamine a little less than someone gets in their daily Adderall, and which has no affinity for dopamine receptors, nonetheless does something to them.
Even though, by taking a dopamine releasing agent (d-amph) combined with a drug that inhibits the breakdown of dopamine (selegiline, functioning as a MAO inhibitor) you are experiencing much greater than normal activation of your dopamine receptors.
So even if l-amph did have some affinity for those receptors, they would be utterly drowned out by all the added endogenous ligand. Even if l-amph instead had affinity for the dopamine transporter, it's just going to be lining up next to d-amph.
There's no mechanism you could propose for l-amph involving dopamine pathways that isn't already affected by your use of d-amph. I'm at a loss to see what it is you think you could be doing to your brain, other than you should not be taking these drugs together.
What is it that you think the l-amph (as a micro-dose, although honestly it's more like half, not a millionth, an Adderall dose) could do to your dopamine receptors?
