You have any advice for me before I start cutting into my compass? Did you run into any problems during your installation?
Sorry to get to this extremely late. I would advise that you take measurements multiple times to be sure! I definitely took my time doing it. It wasn't difficult at all but I just wanted to be certain I didn't make any mistakes.

Is that the same bucket that fits the rectangular hatch? I couldn't find a vertical hatch bucket online.
Yup it is the same rectangular hatch bucket used by the horizontal hatch. It may be labeled as "HOBIE BUCKET HOBIE RECTANGULAR HATCH V2" If you want I can find the part number for you.

Last question, did you have an problems fitting the bucket into the hatch? Looks like everything fits fine in your photos.
Zero problems! Fit like a glove for me! However, maybe YMMV as some members on this board and other boards complain about the horizontal hatch not able to use the bucket without issues.
