I've considered cutting an IEC cord (hopefully finding a thinner version since, as you point out, the more common styles are thicker) and just using a common velcro wrap as a "keeper". The clip would be nice but having that ground connection is more important to me.

They were quite common at one time. They used a thinner outer jacket to make
them more flexible. Some computer power cords are similar, and you could cut
off the IEC C13 connector.
At one time, I worked for an asset recovery company, and we sold those used
Belden cords in batches of 100 from scrapped computer terminals and other
minicomputer hardware.
Does anyone have a '70s or '80s Belden catalog to look up the specs?

The manual I have shows a Belden number. I looked for that as well but no
luck.

Wasn't Tek using Belden power cords at that time?
