app-emulation/virtualbox-modules does not install vboxpci.ko here. I
guess the information in the wiki is outdated.
$ equery files app-emulation/virtualbox-modules | grep '\.ko$'
/lib/modules/5.4.80-gentoo-r1-x86_64/misc/vboxdrv.ko
/lib/modules/5.4.80-gentoo-r1-x86_64/misc/vboxnetadp.ko
/lib/modules/5.4.80-gentoo-r1-x86_64/misc/vboxnetflt.ko
Kind regards, tastytea

I have the same output:
# equery files app-emulation/virtualbox-modules | grep '\.ko$'
/lib/modules/5.4.80-gentoo-r1/misc/vboxdrv.ko
/lib/modules/5.4.80-gentoo-r1/misc/vboxnetadp.ko
/lib/modules/5.4.80-gentoo-r1/misc/vboxnetflt.ko
What is missing is in 5.4.80-gentoo-r1 is: vboxpci.ko
In my old kernel it was there:
/lib/modules/5.4.72-gentoo/misc/vboxpci.ko

Your old kernel could have it from an older installation of
virtualbox-modules, that module is no longer installed
% qlist virtualbox-modules
/lib/modules/5.4.80-gentoo-r1/misc/vboxnetflt.ko
/lib/modules/5.4.80-gentoo-r1/misc/vboxnetadp.ko
/lib/modules/5.4.80-gentoo-r1/misc/vboxdrv.ko
/etc/modprobe.d/vboxdrv.conf
/usr/lib/modules-load.d/virtualbox.conf
And the virtualbox.conf file contains
vboxdrv
vboxnetflt
vboxnetadp
No mention of vboxpci.
Does VirtualBox work?

Yes, it works. Gentoo wiki did not get updated, in addition I was copying configuration from previous kernel that I just installed a month ago or so.
It is hard o catch all the changes during updates.

It has nothing to do with your kernel config, the vbox* modules are
installed by virtualbox-modules. The vboxpci module you have was
installed with an older version of that package, possibly a year or so
ago.

It seems to me this driver is no longer needed/used.

It was for incomplete PCI passthrough support, removed in 6.1.x:
From changelog:
"Linux host: Drop PCI passthrough, the current code is too incomplete
(cannot handle PCIe devices at all), i.e. not useful enough"
So being gone is normal.
