Reattaching the connector is relatively easy. But unless the pcb itself is really mangled, a missing connector won't affect the computer POSTing. Can you send a closeup of where the connector should be?

It's in my garage at the moment, but from memory (it's been a year or two now) the USB-3.0 header straight up fell off. The PCB should be fine, which is why I have a feeling that I could likely just resolder it, so long as the pads themselves on the PCB were ok.

I'll see if I can find some time this week to dig it out and share a photo, thank you for the offer!
