Do that help with e1000 as well ? IE. A bad clock might have caused

No, it didn't help with the e1000. In fact, we have separate clocks
for the on-board components.

Turns out that the clock buffer driving the PCI connector was, well,

Did you probe the PCI edge connect to see what supplies were present?

Actually, before going down that route, I would get a PCI extender
that you can use to trace the traffic with your board. Does the
network card use 33MHz or 66MHz?
I wonder if something like this board:
