Is there a way that an RCD, or similar device, can be incorporated to

Should both the neutral and earth be wired to the chassis of the vehicle.

If you ground the Neutral *before* you take it to an RCD, it should work.

There has been much useful advice already given but it is worth saying
that "some" generators deliver from a centre tapped output winding.
Make certain yours is not one of them.

If it is, grounding one leg will simply pop the breaker each time it
starts. If this happens, whichever leg you ground, then you'll know.
