If the ROM leg isn't completely snapped off you can solder a new one onto
the stub. I've done that in the past to a couple of Pagemaker ROMs that had
legs of jelly!

DFS with the one supplied with the upgrade kit. This replacement is
essential as it contains the utilities for use with the RAM upgrade."

See <http://www.nvg.ntnu.no/bbc/doc/BPlus64KFittingInstructions.zip>

The other two "ROM" sockets you mention are for the speech upgrade,
inserting ROMs into these would most likely destroy them.
