Can I assume you understand what a condline is?
An edgeline that is only visible under certain conditions.

   

On this image one condline is made visible. The line is placed between the vertices A and B. (One vertex, many vertices).
The conditions for the line is visualized as two other imaginary lines; A-C and A-D.
(Note that this condline have one bad controlpoint, D. To be correct it has to connect to either E or F)

The code for a condline is made of 4 points.
5 <colour> x1 y1 z1 x2 y2 z2 x3 y3 z3 x4 y4 z4

Here is a real one from your part
5 24 3.263 -17.452 -16.378 6.4 -17.495 -16.771 5.979 -19.995 -15.973 7.908 -10.278 -17.106

How do I make it visible?

Activate the Line tool found here, and click on an edge between 2 surfaces.
If there is a condline, it will become visible as this:

   

Is there a way to find missing condlines?
Activate the Cond Line Mode.  All condlines are now made visible, and orange.

   

How do I make a new condline manually?
Activate the Create Condline Tool

and then grab all the wanted vertices; A, B, C and D. In that order. One at a time
Remember vertex C and D must be from the 2 surfaces between which you want to create a condline.

Here I'm trying to grab point C

LDPE will not create a condline if the angle between the 2 surfaces are judged as to small.
When you are making condlines the tool sticks to the first, or second vertex. You can release that by pressing Esc and grab a different vertex.

Now, to illustrate what I said in my review.
You need to add condlines in the red squares, and the vertices in the green rings don't match.
And LDPE can't grab a vertex correctly, if the vertices don't match.
