If my memory serves me correctly (50/50 chance) the above mentioned maamar appears in Sifri, but changes “dress” to that they were not baalei LH. Dress has obviously changed many times, as have names. For names, have a look in divrei hayomim> Languages have changed, the shvatim spoke the mamaloshen of the imahos, which was Aramis. And b’avosenu horabim, its been a long time since there was universal shmira from Loshon Horah. The long golus in many places has caused all this change, because these details were no longer the nisoyon or avoda… until very recently
