Syncing doesn't work when I patch manually.

If you're using PatchAll() with type parameters, make sure to patch the Config class like other files.
Example:

harmony.PatchAll(typeof(StartMatchLeverPatch));
harmony.PatchAll(typeof(GameNetworkManagerPatch));
harmony.PatchAll(typeof(Config)); 

I am not seeing any logs from the request/receiver methods?

Harmony may refuse to patch the InitializeLocalPlayer method inside Config.cs if you have already have a dedicated patch file for PlayerControllerB. You can try placing the method there instead.

[HarmonyPatch(typeof(PlayerControllerB))]
internal class PlayerControllerBPatch {
    [HarmonyPostfix]
    [HarmonyPatch("ConnectClientToPlayerObject")]
    public static void InitializeLocalPlayer() {
        if (Config.IsHost) {
            try {
                Config.MessageManager.RegisterNamedMessageHandler($"{PluginInfo.PLUGIN_GUID}_OnRequestConfigSync", Config.OnRequestSync);
                Config.Synced = true;
            }
            catch (Exception e) {
                Plugin.Logger.LogError(e);
            }

            return;
        }

        Config.Synced = false;
        Config.MessageManager.RegisterNamedMessageHandler($"{PluginInfo.PLUGIN_GUID}_OnReceiveConfigSync", Config.OnReceiveSync);
        Config.RequestSync();
    }
}
