FWIW, the flyback transformers on all G3 iMacs (but *especially* the trayloaders) is an infamous failure point; they were blowing up back when the machines were only three or four years old. I’m curious how hard it’s going to be to find one that works.
Also of note about the trayloaders: (take this with a grain of salt, though, I got rid of mine 14 years ago… and at the time it still worked but the flyback would occasionally make loud ominous cracking noises) The internal monitors on those does connect with a Mac-standard pinout DB-15 connector, which makes it easy to connect external monitors to the iMac’s motherboard, but it’s my recollection the monitor itself isn’t a standard multisync and won’t behave with standard VGA frequencies. Again, double check this, but my recollection is it actually had a fixed line rate and changed resolutions by modifying the vertical refresh. (IE, it ran at something like 100hz in 640x480 and dropped to 70hz in 1024x768 mode). You may have to take this into account and cook up custom mode lines. I don’t know if this applies to the slot loader monitor.
