Seems only a few different pseudo-opcodes. Otherwise I guess my
crossassembler xa would crunch it happily.

Nevertheless, in the 4040.zip archive I can only find the copy for the
main CPU of the drive. AFAIK those drives have two processors, with
one of them doing the read/write to the drives.
This is the part I think is missing. Also the copyright message
is strange (see below) Shouldn't that be DOS 2.6 and 4040 DUAL FLOPPY?
(it's in the file DOS)
