Why do you need two pieces. If you invert the soft jaw on the fixed jaw so the workpiece is on the saw table and allow the movable jaw to adjust to the angle on the workpiece, you only need one soft jaw.
That is providing the soft jaw extends over the moving jaw screw axis.

Yesterday I had to cut 6 diagonal braces for a new project. My trusty
horizontal/vertical bandsaw is set up to cut right angles although it can be
adjusted to cut 45 degrees. But it is such a pain to move these jaws. So
instead I quickly made up a pair of softjaws that hold the bar stock at 45
degrees.
