I know this might be too late, but I had the same problem many years ago and today I was able to find all the pieces of the map. I still couldn't go back in time in the Guru scene, but that part wasn't necessary for solving the map puzzle. 
For me, the part of the map that I was missing was in the sunken Chinese ship, in the last stop before reaching Japan. What I had to do was give the old man the map, he said he had a similar piece stored in a jar and he gave it to Valdo, after he found it.
The last piece of the map is given by Marie, right before entering the ship again, after successfully completing the final puzzle in Japan.

It was somewhat thrilling to finally complete the game I had played as a child!
