I would like to get something similar to this, vertical like the one in the picture but with e key instead of m key. Anyone know where i could secure one from?

they don't seem to carry the vertical connector, they have the horizontal one.

I think only vertical connectors are compatible on the traces found here.

I am kinda sure that this will not work, there are smd caps and resistors which are missing beside the traces for m.2 slot.

There are 4 pull up/down resisters, 2 impedance matching resistors and a bunch of caps missing. On second thought you maybe right, it's a futile endeavour.
 
If that is futile, what is the best option to get WiFi on boards that are missing m.2 "E" key slots?
Do WiFi cards support both m.2 and PCI-E? It is all very confusing to me too.

USB dongles, PCIe X1 adapter and m.2 m key to a/e key converter.

When using m.2 m key to a/e key converter the m.2 m key slot should be pcie based (this works on some board only)

Some wifi cards come in m.2 form factor out of which some are PCIe based (like 9260NGW, AX200 and Mediatek MT7921) and some are CNVi based (like 9560NGW and AX201)

Some cards come in Mini PCIe form factor which are obviously PCIe based.
