Yeah I found the issue, bodyslide was building the files to the default skyrim directory that does not have Enderal installed. So I just configured the path within bodyslide to the bodyslide folder I made within mod organizer's mod folder, at least that's what I think it was. But that wouldn't explain why it would not use the mesh when I manually added the files to the directory. I also did install the remodeled armor replacer mod and patched it to add Enderal's new race records, the mod also comes with a NakedTorso entry, so that might've also fixed it?? Oh well, everything works now.
