Open translation for this passage
ἔστι δὲ καὶ ἄλλα Αἰγιεῦσιν ἀγάλματα χαλκοῦ πεποιημένα, Ζεύς τε ἡλικίαν παῖς καὶ Ἡρακλῆς, οὐδὲ οὗτος ἔχων πω γένεια, Ἀγελάδα τέχνη τοῦ Ἀργείου.
The copular clause has ἄλλα ἀγάλματα as subject and πεποιημένα as a participial predicate/modifier; the two statues are appositional elaborations. Ἀγελάδα τέχνη τοῦ Ἀργείου means 'by the art of Ageladas of Argos,' with τέχνη understood as an instrumental ablatival/dative-like expression; the exact attachment of Ἀγελάδα is somewhat uncertain.

τὰ δὲ ἔτι παλαιότερα προεκέκριτο ἐκ τῶν παίδων ἱερᾶσθαι τῷ Διὶ ὁ νικῶν κάλλει·
The impersonal προεκέκριτο governs the infinitive ἱερᾶσθαι; τὰ παλαιότερα is the neuter plural subject/topic (‘the older practices/things’), while ὁ νικῶν κάλλει is the nominative subject of the infinitive, with κάλλει as dative of respect/criterion. The exact force of τὰ is substantival and somewhat elliptical.

ἀρχομένων δὲ αὐτῷ γενείων ἐς ἄλλον παῖδα ἡ ἐπὶ τῷ κάλλει μετῄει τιμή.
Genitive absolute ἀρχομένων γενείων sets the temporal circumstance; αὐτῷ is ethical/dative of reference with the implicit subject, while ἡ τιμή is the subject of μετῄει and ἐς ἄλλον παῖδα marks its transfer. ἐπὶ τῷ κάλλει is a causal/grounds phrase.

ἐς δὲ Αἴγιον καὶ ἐφʼ ἡμῶν ἔτι συνέδριον τὸ Ἀχαιῶν ἀθροίζεται, καθότι ἐς Θερμοπύλας τε καὶ ἐς Δελφοὺς οἱ Ἀμφικτύονες.
The sentence is syntactically elliptical after καθότι: the Ἀμφικτύονες are understood as the subject of an omitted verb (probably ἀθροίζονται/συνάγονται) at Thermopylae and Delphi; ἐφʼ ἡμῶν means ‘in our time’.
