Since the feat refers to "attacks" and not "attack actions": yes, you can use one maneuver on every attack. So, if you're a level 5 fighter you can make two attacks using two maneuvers during one attack action.
And I guess opportunity attacks would also qualify.
so 3 attacks adding the Superiority Die to each attack for when you really need to take the MF'er out
Since Action Surge lets you take 2 attack actions, and Extra attack gives you two attacks whenever you take the attack action, it is 4 total attacks. You could use all 4 of your superiority dice on one turn if you wanted.

I would disagree. Fighter takes Attack Action; they may or *may not* take their Extra Attack. They then take their Action Surge to take an Attack Action. If they DID NOT use their Extra Attack with their first Attack Action, then they may take their Extra Attack. Extra Attack is only usable *once* per short rest, therefore you can not take two Extra Attacks even if you have two Attack Actions (unless you are sufficient level to take more than one Extra Attack).

That is absolutely not true at all. Extra Attack affects any character who has it every time they take the Attack Action. If you have a 20th level Fighter, every time they take the Attack action they get 4 attacks. If they use Action Surge and use it to make the Attack Action then they would get another 4 attacks that same turn. If they use their second Action surge the next round, then they make another 8 Attacks.

Apologies. Action Surge is limited, Extra Attack is not. Mea culpa.

Is the Battle Master Fighter able to use superiority die on an Action Surge or/and an extra attack?
Under Battle Master Maneuvers it states "you can only use one maneuver per attack"
Action surge lets you do an additional action meaning a separate additional attack, correct?
Extra Attack has "You can attack twice" meaning two separate attacks correct?

Naresea has it right. You could use up all your superiority dice in 1 turn if you wanted.
And I have. It's nice to have a nova ability on a fighter.
A separate additional attack action.
"whenever you take the Attack action"
