How to send Windows Event Logs in Snare over Syslog format?

I'm researching a solution for sending Windows Event logs to a third party service that requires them to be in "Snare over Syslog" format, not the RFC-3164-compliant format that Splunk puts them in when using syslog format.

Has anyone accomplished this? We do have a heavy forwarder in our environment that is set up to receive these logs from our Universal Forwarders, and I know you can use things like SEDCMD to modify data within the logs as they come in, but I haven't found a way to completely reformat them into this new format and send them out. 

If anyone has done this or has any tips, I'd appreciate it!

This is what the format looks like:
