Ha, they’re still Ford starter relays to me.
Still not understanding the need to add, basically a disconnect, or 2 disconnects. One on the charge line and one on the emergency start line. And isn’t the emergency start already disconnected unless it’s activated?
Or are you saying you will have a “dumb” DCDC charger and you’re worried about overcharging the house batteries? In that case, a simple Ford starter relay seems appropriate and easy
