The minimum order size is 37000 (!) and I can't get any for a sample. That's a pretty big outlay for something that I'm not sure if it would work out, and I'm not entirely certain how I would go about "molding them in" in a reliable fashion.
Maybe it's time for a another chat to the machinists...

I would think that that's the easy part! It would eliminate all this fancy CNC work.
Use the same top and simply drill out the holes. You can then either squeeze these little tubes into position, or fasten them, using a touch of an adhesive. The adhesive would only be to hold them in position, for shipping, since the waterflow would take care of it otherwise.
It's a little more hand work, but I'm sure you can figure out a way to do it in less than 2 minutes, for each block.
I guess your question is more about the alignment, isn't it?
