GOTO telescope mount power cable - HELP!!!

Recently I bought this old Optus 60/700 GOTO telescope off marketplace for $30, thought it was a good deal for goto mount tracking. I saw it didn't come with a power cable to connect to the main mount to provide it with power. The best help i could find because it is such a niche random scope was an old youtube vid from 14 years back (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tmIY8Two4as).

I was wondering if anyone at all might know anything about the power cable of this scope. I went to my local electronics store and they said they never saw anything like it. What I do know is that the main mount is powered by 8 AA 1.5V batteries, just don't know what cable to to use.

If anyone could let me know that would be great, thanks
