The connector on the external 5.25" floppy disk enclosure is a 37 way D.
Now if only I could be bothered to get a 37W D male & female & find some IDC cable that's wide enough I could connect it all up & see if it works.
I know the drive works (or worked) when it was connected to a Tatung Einstein via a 34 way IDC cable.
Amazingly enough I didn't butcher the existing 37W cabling whilst doing so.
I've quite happily spent my entire career in the trailing edge of almost everything. :D
