I have just been looking at this site and have found these little beauties Clicky I am sure that if you cut the little tag off turned it upside down it would make a nice hop strainer. I was also thinking that you could use the drip tray that comes with it as the bottom plate of the filter if you drilled a hole in it and fitted between the tank connector and barrel it would seat the strainer nicely and minimise dead space.

80mm/3.5" ... is that going to be ... big enough?

in a nutshell no
If it is 80mm wide by 80mm tall it would give the following
volume= 402.12386 cm3
lateral surface area = 201.06193 cm2
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
top surface area = 50.26548 cm2
base surface area = 50.26548 cm2
total surface area= 301.59289 cm2
This would give a working area of mesh of 250cm2. That is a fairly large surface area and I would think that you would need a lot of slits in copper pipe to equal that.
