Power-only USB-C connectors don't have the same pitch issues as they only need to pin out the power and CC1/CC2 pins.

However, the 0.65/0.40 pads required for USB-C are no longer an issue for any of the board houses I have used in the past couple of years.

Yeah you should be able to find a USB c connector that works. Plus you only need to route the power, ground, and d+/d- signals
