Fixing Dove MacSnap SCSI Adapter for Mac 128k

Hello,
I recently acquired a Dove MacSnap card, which allows a SCSI port to be added to a Mac 128k. This board plugs into both ROM slots and provides a port for the SCSI cable. However, one of the pins that connects to the ROMs is missing, as well as two that connect to the SCSI-out cable. Does anyone know how I could repair something this delicate?

I can post pictures if that helps.

One pin for the ribbon cable is supposed to be missing. That's to key the ribbon cable so you can't plug it in backwards. But I see you have 2 pins missing, so that additional pin may be a problem.

It looks like the broken pin is important. The missing pin is most likely ground but the broken pin could be I/O or Data 0
