τὰ μέντοι ἄλλα με οὐκ ἔπειθεν ὁ λόγος ἢ Ἡφαίστου τὸν ναὸν τέχνην εἶναι ἢ τὰ ἐς τὰς ᾠδοὺς τὰς χρυσᾶς, ἃ δὴ Πίνδαρος ᾖσεν ἐπʼ ἐκείνῳ τῷ ναῷ·
The sentence has coordinated, elliptical accusative content under ἔπειθεν; the second alternative (τὰ ἐς τὰς ᾠδούς ...) is structurally compressed, so its attachment is marked medium confidence.

οὐ μὴν οὐδὲ τρόπον ὅντινα ἀφανισθῆναι συνέπεσε τῷ ναῷ, κατὰ ταὐτὰ εἰρημένα εὕρισκον·
The clause means roughly “yet I did not find, in the same way as stated, by what manner it happened that the temple was destroyed.” The relative ὅντινα modifies τρόπον; ἀφανισθῆναι is an accusative-and-infinitive complement of συνέπεσε, with τῷ ναῷ as dative of reference/affected entity. The exact scope of κατὰ ταὐτὰ εἰρημένα is somewhat uncertain.
