Yes. I also have one that's piggy backed onto a serial card.

IIRC they're soldered on and there are eight PROMs.
Assuming that would be possible,

I doubt it would be very difficult. They're just mapped in the 68000s memory space. Given the size of the EPROMs available today I suspect you could make a replacement OS ROM (not card) that would contain the OS ROM and SE ROM in one or two EPROMS and a PAL to do any necessary address decoding.

Same here. I shouldn't be difficult to write a C-program to read the BASIC and/or SE ROMs and dump the contents over the serial port, I just never got around to it.
