Its fair to say regardless of the myriad of fault codes that are surfacing or will surface in the future, if your DME is missing a pin and it has corrosion on other pins, its time for a DME solution.

There might be a range of problems with your car, but we know one thing for sure. The DME is damaged and is at the top of the priority list to get fixed.

Did they reply and let you know if something was wrong with it or just sent a generic response
