Something is rather strange…

For giggles I perused rockauto, looked at 70/71/72, Catalina, Bird, GP and lemans. They all took ( Standard Motor Products ) the 95 switch for non-tilt, 105 for tilt.

70 lemans and I believe 71 GP had no listing for ignition switch. I cannot believe Pontiac would have a different harness connector(s) for one or two models for one or two years when it seems two switches covered several different models.

IIRC, the tilt switch mounts opposite of non-tilt, the open end of the switch faces other way, thus needing to finagle the harness. So I’m kinda stumped here, just like you.

Your plan to switch connectors is probably the easiest course of action, just remember to flex the little locking tangs back out a bit so they’ll grab/lock in again.
