Help with flash link

[1Cave Ghost]

Amateur needs help.
I have a Canon PowerShot S110. I was using a generic housing until a few the buttons stopped working.
I replaced it with a matching factory Canon S110 housing.
Oddly, the Canon housing does not have a port in front of the flash to trigger the fiber optic link to my Sea and Sea YS-02 strobe. The generic housing actually had a place to attach the strobe cable.
Does anyone know a solution to my issue?

The housing is supposed to have both a diffuser and an attachment for FO cable.

Hence, my dilemma.
The first pic is the old case, you can see the nipple, to plug the in the strobe.
The second pic is the new case, no nipple, unless I'm missing something.
Here is a link to the new Canon case.

The description you link to says:

• Lighting: The camera's built-in flash can be used inside the housing, which comes with a flash diffuser for softening the light of the flash. This prevents harsh light from causing glare and hard shadows. The housing also features an external strobe connector.

I'd go back to whomever you bought it from "new" amd say they owe you a diffuser, underlined above. The strobe connector appears to be what I've circled here:

That is not a connection. That is a support inside the case.

Sweet, where did you find this? The link you provide is just a picture.

It is the part that used to ship with the housing, I have no idea where to buy one.

Another piece that should have come with the housing. Hmmm.
