Alright. So, I don't know if I'm doing the right thing over 'ere, but let's see.
My personal suggestion would be... some sort of setting to enable custom bellies for uh, custom races.
Like, maybe the mod would read from the racelist - exclusively the custom races, no vanilla - and allow you to enable the belly for one or all races.
Mind you, this doesn't mean each custom race would get a seperate belly. Instead, all custom races would get the same belly, you'd just have a prompt to tick if races A through C would have bellies enabled, while D through F wouldn't.
Naturally, the belly would be able to be customizable with the textures, so if you had a custom lizard race, you could pick the argonian textures, or if you had a human/khajit (hereby known as the rare and elusive "catgirl") race, you'd give her either a human or a Khajit texture for the belly. As I mentioned earlier though, all custom races would get the same belly, so if you got eaten by race A as race B, with you owning custom belly B, once you'd be playable as race A your belly would still be race B's, so you'd have to re-customize the belly to better fit race A's. Of course this doesn't matter if you're being eaten by a vanilla race.
Furthermore, said custom belly could happen to have selectable colours. Maybe a similar aspect to Oblivion's color system?
