Indeed, there is no "ordinary" PCI-Connector. At the motherboard of the iMac there is a so-called "mezzanine-slot" which is basically the same functional principle as the connectors for the Q3D-shade cards but the mezzanine-slot is a bit longer. For an "ordinary" PCI-slot there was no place in the iMac, if you remember the old iMacs with the CRT inside.
I don't think you can put two of them together in a SLI-configuration but I honestly don't know that exactly.
Unfortunately the batteries of my cam are just at low power so I can post an image from the backside of the card later on.

About that iMac Game Wizard V2
I have a boxed one for sale if you are looking for one, and no they cannot be run in SLI mode.

Battery charging lasted longer than I thought...
Now after getting home from work I took a picture of the backside of the card:
