Looking for a PBP NVMe/SSD cable

The connector on the board looks like a reasonably standard IDC connector where you squeeze it closed and contacts pierce the insulation on a cable.  Except the picture in the wiki shows flex-board cable which is copper foil on a plastic backing, not wires.  The connector on the adapter I  don't recognize at all.

I believe the little ribbon cable was with the adapter board, and the little micro sized screws and slotted post were in a small baggie,
all inside the envelope.

The whole ribbon cable can hide behind the adapter board....perhaps even stuck to the back of the board ?

 total length of the ribbon is approx 3 & 1/4 inches   Not counting the bends in the ribbon, it is approx 7/16 inch wide.

It has two 45 degree bends at one end that form an offset,

and two 45 degree bends at the other end forming a 90 degree total bend.

I did purchase one earlier that the ribbon cable was loose in the package, the second one I ordered later for my ANSI PBP, had the ribbon packed in with the adapter board.
It is almost paper thin
