Router, don't use the default {$value} result (untested):
data = ${lookup{$local_part} nwildlsearch{/etc/exim/virtual/$domain} \
{${sg{$value}{LOCALPART}{$local_part}}}fail}
Exim Spec, section 10.5 has details on "Expansion items" which includes
${lookup ...} and ${sg...}.
Your existing "data" rule is using an abbreviated form of ${lookup},
which has an implicit {$value}fail at the end. Read the section on
lookup in 10.5 for clear details.
