  b. 1

The 4th quaver in FE is an erroneous f1, as a result of which the next quaver is also wrong – it is an e1 instead of an e1. A comparison with analog. b. 9, 41 and 49 suggests a mistake; another argument is the presence of a , completely unjustified before f1. The mistake was rectified in EE; a corresponding correction is also in FED.
