How would that work? The Belden uses round pins/sockets whereas the IEC uses flat pins/sockets.

I did run across a post from Dale Cook where he says you can often shave
down a standard IEC cord to fit and it will have the correct configuration.
I'm going to give that a try. It's less work than changing out the chassis
receptacle.
Personally, I don't have any objection to fitting a standard IEC
socket if it fits in most circumstances. I would not do that for
my HP 9100B though.

Don't do this, this vandalized IEC cord that came with a 101A I bought a few years ago, the seller did show it powered up.
For my collection I prefer to keep the original sockets, others IMO ruin them with cheap IEC C14 sockets.
Another option is the smaller IEC C6, but that has a limitation of 2.5A, some cords are of poor quality too.
And there is a 3DP housing that some are using.
