Ixel - looking at a photo of an NTE5c I see what you mean, the overhang is very tight against the top of the test socket.
Best scrap that idea.

My next suggestion would be to chop one end from a standard modem lead and fit a BT431A to it. The plugs usually come with the fitting tool - you just squeeze them up in a small vice.
