I don't do rain or threat there of. dry rider only with no shame.
They are a very large number of different shapes and sizes, you would really want to take the old one with you to where ever you go to compare.
Yes that is usually the inner size, but that may not be the physical size you need.
On balance I don't think I would attempt it actually

Most stuff is repairable if you have the know how and right tools and parts.
I remember years ago i lobbed my phone charger in the bin at work which to me was properly knackered.
Anyway, i literally went on my lunch break then popped up to see my electronics technician afterwards and he was charging his phone with it.
He'd spotted it in the bin, fixed it in minutes then taken claim to it.
Bit cheeky, but now i know their full capabilities i occasionaly use their skills to help me out with the bike as well, which is extremely handy.

The power supply is 19V 2.3A I think you said. The replacement plug will easily have much better insulation than 12V and the difference in current is slight.
The way to find out which cable goes where is to use a multimeter set to ohms or continuity and then test between the exposed conductor and the various plug terminals till you find one that conducts.
