Dazzler, that's what I was looking for but thinking about it a bit more, I've opted for what u have in the 2nd photo. Your 1st photo is what I originally wanted but the cost to have something like that fabricated became too costly and unfortunately, no one sells anything like that readily made anymore....

Anyhow the bottom one is from here:

LOCKABLE MARINE BOAT DECK DIESEL FUEL FILLER 50mm HOSE CAST 316 STAINLESS STEEL | eBay

I had to shorten the neck by half (about 50mm) to make it work.

For your benefit this is how it looks now:
