"GfK" is right.
It is not a case of swapping leads/connectors. The lead with the connector is built into the PSU itself. As far as I can tell, it needs a suitable PSU that doesn't have such a bulky 'ATX12V' plug on it.
However, I honestly think the design of the motherboard has not helped.
Here is the mobo:

Where the mouse and keyboard connectors are (on the left) you see the copper heatpiping for the CPU. Where it bends to the left you will see a white block (behind the mouse port) - that is the 'ATX12V' - it is cleary a tight squeeze.
They have clearly forced the PSU connector into the motherboard against the heat-pipe - it's leaning like the 'Tower of Pizza'.
This explains why I had a job to push it back in, I was pushing against the heatpipe to do so.
