Looks like the same type of double connector that Compaq was using a lot back then for their Laptops....
I know this is by no means helpful, just an observation

These are dual female slots though, iirc the Compaq modules were using male and female... And also were a little bigger.

Wouldnt be surprised if it's proprietary to this machine.

Nice 😁
These mid-90s laptops all seemed to have different non-standard modules - cool to know that Twinhead may have been the OEM of some of the Omnibook range
