Need help identifying circular connector

I have a Garmin Rino 655t that needs a new charger. Aftermarket chargers are really pricy and I can find chargers with barrel plugs that have the right spec (9.5v 1.4a) at a fraction of the cost. The only problem is I'm not able to find the right connector for it after combing Digikey & Mouser's thousands of circular connectors. It's a keyed connector with a 8.2mm or so diameter and 3.5mm pin spacing. A (blurry) picture of the shape:
Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks for the help, though this is what I feared.
I don't have a 3D printer but I could try molding it.

Sugru
works well for moulding custom connectors like this.
Crimp wires to your receptacles, fit them in place and press in the sugru, form nicely around the wires...done.
