Ok?the problem seemed to be with Microsoft Exchange Messaging and Collaboration Services since during the reinstall it was showing a red x. Also, from Event ID 1002 as shown below the EXIFS was the main problem. I mentioned this issue again to the last MS Engineer I spoke with and it happens that today he also had a customer with similar problem on SBS 2003 but he said it is most likely the same issue I am having. So he asked to go to:
C:\Windows\System32\Drivers
Rename the following files exifs.sys and exifssmsg.dll. to *.old
After renaming both files I ran the Reinstall of MS Exchange 2003 Enterprise and everything was ok?.the ESM now shows Enterprise and I see Event ID 1217.

Issue 2: Removing Exchange 2003
After that a new error message apperas 0xc0070425

You rename old to dll again and old to sys, and press "Continue"

The installer succesfully uninstall Exchange 2003 from an older on-premise server
