8-Pin OEM trailer wiring connector

I have a 2023 Palisade and I am adding a four-pin utility trailer wiring plug for the lights that utilizes a powered conversion box. I would prefer to not run a 12v wire to the engine compartment for the light controller and wanted to know if there is any ability to procure the male 8-pin male that connects in the drivers side cargo area. This would be the same as provided on the OEM wiring kit for a 7-pin on part# S8F67AC800.
My assumption is the 8-pin connector would already have the 12v source for lighting and this could be a much cleaner solution and a lower power draw. I have researched that it is a proprietary OEM connector but it must be available somewhere. Any thoughts or corrections to my thinking welcomed.

The combined 7 and 4 pin trailer outlet (plug and play) on my 2022 (so yours is different) comes with a 12 volt pin on the 7 pin side. I suspect all standard outlets will come with a 12 volt pin that you could tie into.
I'm looking for the male 8-pin OEM connector so I could pull the 12v from factory wiring behind the panel in the rear just as the 7-pin trailer connector appears to do without running a separate wire and fuse to the battery.
