Last Created Unit is a global variable which automatically stores the value of the last unit created via "Unit - Create Units..." action.

As for the summoned unit, didn't try but it cannot pick all the illusions anyway. However, everytime an unit casts the ability, wait until it finishes casting it (dunno the time, experiment with it) and then just pick every unit within the area of the caster which is illusion andwhose unit type is equal with the one of the caster. Normally that should do it.

If im not mistaken GetSummonedUnit() returns the summoned unit if used in the actions of EVENT_PLAYER_UNIT_SUMMON.
That event runs each time it SPAWNS a summoned unit thus with mirror image it will run for each illusion created.

To put it more clearly if a spell spawns 15 units the event will run 1 time for each unit when it is summoned even if they are all summoned instantly at the same time.

Note that the event will only run when an ability spawns a summoned unit NOT when a trigger creates one or a building makes one.
