ἐνταῦθά ἐστιν ἱερὸν Ἀθηνᾶς, τὸ δὲ ἄγαλμα Σκύλλιδος τέχνη καὶ Διποίνου ·
The first clause is existential: ἱερόν is the subject of ἐστιν and Ἀθηνᾶς is a genitive dependent on it. In the second clause, τὸ ἄγαλμα is the subject, with τέχνη as a predicative instrumental/dative-like noun expressing workmanship and Σκύλλιδος and Διποίνου as genitives of attribution; coordination is elliptical.

Infinitival clauses depend on an understood prior verb: σφᾶς are said/held to be μαθηταί of Daedalus; οἱ (the authorities) are said to claim that Daedalus and Dipoinos and Skyllis were born from this woman. The second infinitive γενέσθαι has coordinated accusative subjects Δαίδαλον, Δίποινον, Σκύλλιν; οἱ ταύτης is a dative of parentage/relationship, with οἱ probably ταύτης' dative pronoun rather than article.
