vCenter Converter Standalone Key Exchange Algorithms for the helper VM

I'm trying to clone a old linux machine that is powered on using version 6.3.0 Standalone client.

I can connect to the source machine fine, but the conversion fails because the helper VM does not negotiate the key exchange properly.

I can connect to the source machine via SSH from another linux machine on the same subnet, but I have to supply the key exchange algorithm and host key algorithm to do this.

The command line syntax is: ssh -oKexAlgorithms=diffie-hellman-group14-sha1 -oHostKeyAlgorithms=ssh-rsa 10.10.0.x

How do I get the helper VM created by the VC Converter Standalone to use the diffie-hellman-group14-sha1 key exchange and the ssh-rsa host key algorithm?
