Wirewrap wire would work too. I strongly suggest whatever wire you use you tape it to the board as to prevent the pads from tearing up. There are 'backup' pads (testpoints that are connected to the serial pads), but they are on the underside of the mainboard. For dissasembly you need to remove the front panel and unscrew the screen from the rear panel. The serial port is accessible once you unscrew it.
As long as you know how to solder it should be pretty easy. Do you have a proper serial adapter?
