I can't picture this, as it's been a few years since I've seen
one. But most dip resistor packs come in one of 2 forms:
	1 lead common, 15 resistors
	8 pairs of resistors across the package, so to speak.
(It sounds as if this may be a SIP pack, however.)

If you have access to another board, you could use a DVM in low-ohms
mode to trace out the pack. Or, you could measure the bad pack,
guessing that only SOME of the 'r's are damaged.  Extrapolate from
there.

Another approach would be to call Allen Bradley or another resistor
pack mfgr. (Not a dealer, the factory!) Maybe they can identify it.
