Made Bowden tube aligners to just more simply either insert filament to tube and there's male coupler that I use in Space Pi filament dryer's tube end, so that when XL begins to pull both filament tubes together, they align very nicely and don't create kind that increases friction.
Print parts standing. Male part has minor build-in "raft"you need to tear off after printing. I assume any so-to-say slippery plastic will work just fine. I personally just printed from PLA and they work exactly how I wanted. Female part you obviously print larger diameter down. No supports.
Fusion 360 file included if you need to tweak tolerances for your own printer for some reason. This worked great out-of-box on Prusa XL and PLA.
I've just used this with SpacePi to feed TPU95A filament to XL's bowden tube without any issues. In fact in other picture you can see it bypassing sidefilament sensor.
