Today i added USBC to an iPod classic 6th gen. The process is exactly the same for a classic 5th gen too, although the pinout will be the same across all apple devices with the 30 pin dock connector, so you could add this to any iPod assuming there is enough space inside.

Here is a link to the pinout: https://pinoutguide.com/PortableDevic...
