The lead is fairly thick - not sure what gauge (less than 1/4 inch dia.), but I cut it easily with a pair of needle nose pliers.
As for switch selection, there are all kinds of sizes available to handle the rated current. Check the link BBsGarage posted for examples. (I'm not planning a remote switch - it'll simply be in line under the hood.)
Good point about the diesel not needing power for ignition, but it still needs power for the ECU. And what about fuel pumps - are all diesel pumps mechanically driven?
