I see it.
The way I understand it if you remove the head drum (as it appears you have) you need an alignment tape and need to align the tape path to make the deck work even if you fix the ribbon cable for your current drum or new drum. Unless that deck is selling in the hundred dollar range I'd round file it and find a cheap working deck or something worth the effort.
One other option if you can find a cosmetically or electrically damaged deck is to just swap the entire mechanism over (I've done this with a JVC chassis family I have a few models of).
