ἰόντι δὲ ἐς τὸ πρόσω Σελινοῦς τε ποταμὸς καὶ ἀπωτέρω τεσσαράκοντα Αἰγίου σταδίοις ἐπὶ θαλάσσῃ χωρίον ἐστὶν Ἑλίκη.
The sentence has an existential copular structure: χωρίον is the subject, Ἑλίκη the predicative location/name, and Σελινοῦς ποταμός is coordinated with the following χωρίον phrase; ἰόντι is a dative circumstantial participle referring to the traveler. The distance phrase Αἰγίου σταδίοις is elliptical for 'forty stadia from Aigion.'

ἐνταῦθα ᾤκητο Ἑλίκη πόλις καὶ Ἴωσιν ἱερὸν ἁγιώτατον Ποσειδῶνος ἦν Ἑλικωνίου.
ᾤκητο is parsed as the main verb with Ἑλίκη πόλις as its subject; ἦν introduces a coordinated verbless/elliptical assertion, with ἱερόν as subject and Ἴωσιν, Ποσειδῶνος, and Ἑλικωνίου as dependents. The case of Ἴωσιν is formally ambiguous but is taken as dative plural (‘for the Ionians’).

καὶ Μιλησίοις τε ἰόντι ἐπὶ τὴν πηγὴν τὴν Βιβλίδα Ποσειδῶνος πρὸ τῆς πόλεώς ἐστιν Ἑλικωνίου βωμὸς καὶ ὡσαύτως ἐν Τέῳ περίβολός τε καὶ βωμός ἐστι τῷ Ἑλικωνίῳ θέας ἄξιος.
Two coordinated locative clauses are linked by καί: an altar is before the city for a traveler going to the Biblidic spring, and at Teos there is likewise an enclosure and altar worthy of viewing for Heliconius. The first ἐστιν is existential with βωμός as subject; the second ἐστι has περίβολος and βωμός as coordinated subjects. The attachment of Μιλησίοις is somewhat elliptical, likely dative of reference/association with ἰόντι.
