What size is the opening?  Is it threaded in any way?  I suspect not,
but just in case, I'd look at drum spouts such as
https://www.mcmaster.com/drum-spouts

You might also look for a jerry can type of spout, where a lever
expands a rubber seal to secure the spout to the hole.  Something like
this: https://forums.g503.com/viewtopic.php?t=196575  but I have no
idea where to start looking for a new one...or if it would fit your
application...
