I'm a little bit confused, I have an SVG, made only of one stroke that needs to be animated (classic drawing icon animation).
I want to animate the icon like it was drawn from one end of the sroke, to the other end, but it confuses the icon for a shape and the stroke ends up animated around that shape (so instead of having an animated stroke I have a shape that should be a stroke... with strokes animated around it). I don't know if you can get the full stroke path on illustrator to animate it, or if it will keep being a shape and I would never be able to do what I want with it

Your graphic artist has drawn this incorrectly. You can see this if you put a very narrow stroke on it with zero fill - each curve is actually a double curve - so it is actually drawn as a shape.

There are two options.
The "line" should be a solid path with a stroke. In that case you can animate the stroke-dasharray.
<svg xmlns="http//www.w3.org/2000/svg" viewBox="0 0 50 10">
<path d="M 5 5 C 28 0 18 12 45 5" stroke="orange" stroke-width="1"
fill="none" stroke-dasharray="0 10" pathLength="10">
<animate attributeName="stroke-dasharray" values="0 10;10 10"
dur="5s" fill="freeze" />
</path>
</svg>The "line" should be masked with one or more paths. This is the solution for your SVG as it is now. The mask is animated so that it "covers" the line. The only challenge is when the line overlaps itself. In that case there have to be more path animations timed in the mask. You can read more about it in a tutorial like this: SVG Calligraphy Handwriting Animation.
