New speedo cable is not grabbing at the hub end. Cable, hub, or what?

So i picked up a new speedo for my cafe build and needed a new vcable because there wasn't one on the bike to begin with. My bike is an 83 with the stock front wheel. The cable either appears to be too small to fit into the housing at the hub end or the housing is stripped or something because it is a hot dog down a hallway. The cable fits into the speedo and the speedo is confirmed working (used a drill).

does anyone know what that little hub part is called and/or what I can do to remedy this situation?

Any help is appreciated. The manual does not address this.

:(
