I don't have any 256KB non-epoxy boards to check this for certain, but the most likely candidates would be:
Pin 8 -> PRG A17
Pin 45 -> CHR A17

Namcot was Namco's home division.

Yes.
They were called "Namco Hometek" in the US.

And I assume they have nothing to do with Duck Tape.
Click

, activate the Flash object, then scroll to 1985. Compare the logo that the duck mascot is wearing to Namco's logo prior to the merger with Bandai.

Since this thread has decayed, I might as well compliment you, sdm, on the clean wiring on your namco board. It doesn't get much better than that.
