For your 2018 Chevy 4500 Cutaway Chassis, the brake controller wiring you will need is the hardwiring kit # 5506 to connect to your 7-way. If you don't already have the 7-way then use # ETBC7 for your brake controller and trailer wiring.
For your brake controller, I recommend using the Redarc Tow-Pro Elite Trailer Brake Controller # RED44FR. This will give you a really clean look for your motorhome and it won't take up usable space.
