i should probably mention the "strain Relief" is the plastic piece in the inside of the case on the usb cable

The rubber strain relief should slot into plastic recess on the top of shell.

It looks like the strain relief doesn't go "into" the slot on this board, but rather sits on the inside of the shell with the cable going out of that hole. It should fit, you probably just have to rotate it around.
