If I am reading your diagram correctly, these traces are all even and
run from left to right 2-40. The traces in question would be:
pin function
2 NC -12v on Coco1 or 2
4 NMI non-maskable IRQ; cut on my card
6 E clock
8 CART IRQ line
10-16 CPU data
18 R/W CPU
20-30 CPU address
32 CTS cartridge select
34 ground
36 SCS not used on my card
38 CPU address
40 SLEND not used on my card
