Thank you all for the input. I'm going to get the Problem Solvers Mismatch Adapter 1.2 for left and right. This looks like the best solution for me.
I can only see a right in the 1.2? Did you manage to get a left too?

I don't have it in hand yet but Jenson usa shows it fo $40 left and right kit. Hope to get it this week. Shipping is an issue with snow and storms in California right now.
One tip from me on fitting the new rear cable... Firstly, lubricate the existing cable and duct with something like GT85 to help the cables slide through. Then I found two small screws that would screw into the end of the hose. After screwing the screws half way into both the existing cable and replacement cable, to cut a thread, I removed the screw from the new cable and then cut the head off the other whilst still in the cable, this left enough exposed thread to attach the new cable. This was a little difficult as you need to rotate the new cable to screw in on! Keep the cables aligned and pull and push carefully on old and new cables to feed through. As everyone says getting it past the motor was the tricky bit, once past there it is plain sailing! Note, I am not an expert, but this worked for me. The damaged part of the new cable can be cut off as they always need shortening.
if you have a reverb (or know someone who has). In the pack of spares you will find a hose barb connector made specifically for joining two hose/cables together to ease replacement with internal routing.
One of these
Last internal routing I did I probably spent an hour looking in various tool boxes and spares boxes for one of those wee red couplings.Yep that would have been easier, but alas I didn’t have one in my spares box.
