I'm thinking I need to rummage around, find an external USD HDD, wipe and format it, make it a bootable clone of the old OEM SSD, then repeat my original steps. Make sense?

That's odd.
I'd return the external case and look for a compatible one.
Or do the two step clone using a standard HD as you suggest, probably the quickest route and as long as the OEM SSD works in that case you are good, so yeah, pain in the ass but that seems to be the ticket.
