ok, I had a look at that:

Both groups of additional parts appearently are NOT modifications, but 
they seem to be the standard wiring of the very first series. (in my 
MonoPoly the same connections exists, but they are achieved as traces on 
the pcb!)

The one on the VCF board is the the circuit around Q10, R85, R86, D7, 
and C27.
The one on the bender board is the regular wiring of the Arpeggiator 
Off/On/Latch switch.

The unused connector on the VCO board is appearently only a kind of 
testsocket.


My most likely suspect is the portamento potentiometer itself. You wrote:

If you measure the lines, then you won't recognize if the slider of the 
potentiometer itself is broken. Did you try to shortcut the portamento 
potentiometer for vco4?
