You don’t need permission to pull that trigger. Just don’t point the weapon at us (or your foot) 
My own answer to this kind of question is always the same. Some of moOde can be ported to a foreign ARM board and OS “fairly” easily. Some of moOde will require a complete rewrite. You won’t know which is which until you’re well into it.
I know of 4 attempts on various SBCs of which 3 are my own. Getting the mpd/alsa core to play via a USB DAC and using the playback and library views was always pretty easy but there are other ways to get similar functionality from any Linux box without trying to port moOde. Using I2S DACs would be a challenge.
Since Orange Pi’s employ U-boot and not the proprietary RPi boot process, no Raspberry Pi OS-based image is going to boot as-is.
Bottom line — Orange Pis have been around for more than half a decade. If porting moOde were done easily it would already have been done and bragged about here or on the web.
Good luck.
