My question is, is there any way to tell Calibre to use my code instead of generating its own, so I don't have to do all those manual replacements?

If I read this right. You want fully Automatic upon converting.
There is a 'Generate Cover' plugin that allows user designed covers to be created (manual click)
Conversions use the 'Library (metadata) cover.

have the cover showing in the metadata before you convert.
Simply have the 'remove first Image' box ticked if the cover is not identified as 'cover' in the original and Calibre will remove that one.
