I pulled apart the fuse block when I fist discovered it and was going to swap the wires as you described but the terminal that has 12 volts is getting it via a jumper wire from another terminal from a different slot.

Yes, I believe the original electromechanical type flashers are still available. Although I don't think you can go by the part number alone because a quick web search of '552 flasher' showed up lots of variations (some of which had transparent covers that made their electronic internals clearly visible).

The jumper wire feeding 12V to the flasher socket shouldn't present any issues with swapping the terminals (unless it's physically too short to reach). In other words, just swap the terminals between the two cavities in the fuse block housing (leaving their wires attached as-is).
