I've never seen a 5oA "male" receptical built into an enclosure. Reminder the "hot side" of any power connection has to be the female connector to prevent accidental electrocution.
Agree... I was thinking, but did not elaborate, similar to MHs... use the elec bay to install the straight blade male receptacle. Looks like Don went Smart Plug route and no problem there... they are a quality and well respected unit used successfully in the marine environment that is even more challenging than RVs.
