OPA Alice in a split config for upright bass mic?

I think the bearing/bushing is something like this with a 3/4" inside diameter: https://www.zoro.com/bunting-bearings-flanged-bearing-id-34-l-34-pk3-ef121412/i/G3915965/

That means, if we can find an XLR insert that's 3/4" on the outside, it should slide right into that bushing.

Something like this would work except that by the time you cut off the square part, I think the remaining material would be too short and the XLR pins would poke out a little bit: https://www.digikey.com/en/products/detail/switchcraft-inc/DE3M/4863754
