2 pin power LED to 3 pin motherboard with no middle pin (alien.top)

I've run into an interesting situation with the Gigabyte MC13-LE0.

The front panel header on the motherboard has a 3 pin power LED header but importantly instead of a double of one pin (ie, ++-) which would allow one to use either a 2 pin or 3 pin plug the middle pin is not present.

Any common ways to turn a 2 pin power LED plug to a 3 pin plug? I'm happy to do a bit of soldering / crimping, just not sure where to get the supplies. I think in my ideal world I'd convert the Power LED lead cables to a 3 pin plug but also open to a place that sells adapters.

Need a power supply. Does anyone know if the Rosewill 2U cases are compatible with a water cooler? I'm doing the home server in a 2U as well so have been looking at options here for cases.
