Cantilever -> V Brake cable routing

I just drilled my dog collar out
I've got these two. The left is the OG off the Lava Dome and the right is the one off the '96 Hahanna. Not sure if the wear on the Lava Dome one will allow me to drill it out without breaking, and the Hahanna one isn't the right orientation, as the cable exit hugs the radius of the clamp.

The sjs item might not be strong enough to take vbrake forces - the ps one is, but might dig into the paint.
You can use a shimano step- down ferrule into the enlarged exit hole in the dog collar,

4mm?

Full length cable can be concealed under the top tube, but leaves the front brake outer stop empty🙁
