Which fitting do you intend to purchase? If you measure the male thread on the zerk you removed does the thread measure around 1/4" diameter, or is it just under 3/8"?

You are correct. My 90° fitting is only 3/4" long. All of those are longer than that so none will work. Darn.
It was a great idea anyway. Guess I'll have to do one of the other options. Probably shim the tranny mount up a bit.
If I wanted to keep searching, what size is the threaded hole that I'm looking to fit something into? 1/4"-28 or 1/8" NPT (the only two sizes that source sells)? Or, something else?
Here's my fitting on a ruler:
