Corsair Commander Pro to Alphacool GPU block rgb connectors

I have a corsair hydro x loop for my cpu controlled by my commander pro and I would like to add my gpu to the loop, I have a Asus dual 3070 which has a waterblock available for it from alphacool. I have all the functional aspects of it sorted out but I need help with the rgb situation. I would like to control the rgb lights on the gpu block with my commander pro. I know that I can get an adapter to connect the gpu leds to the second open lighting channel on the commander pro but does anyone know if I can somehow tie the gpu rgb into the same channel as my pump and res? Also I think alphacool uses a non standard rgb connector but I can't find much info about it. I've looked at the adapters from piratedog tech on ebay but can't figure out exactly what adapters I need if I want to tie all the rgb leds into a single channel in icue. Any advice would be appreciated!

 

Please enjoy this poorly drawn diagram of my current rgb setup.

funny i got some alphacool ram blocks and m.2 blocks as well and ya they have proprietary connectors on them... i have not looked to see witch why are but probably some sort of jst connector i think.

 

data is in the middle but i dont no witch is 5v and witch is ground.

 

JST XH 2.5mm Pitch 3-pin would be my guess

red 5v

black data 

yellow ground

 

on the alphacool cable it will be

 

gray 5v

middle black data

ground black
