Not convinced - 'each' begins an appositive phrase (noun modifier) modifying 'every romance language' - the having phrase very well modifies that 'each'
I would have conceded your point if it had been just :-
having a consistent order of impersonal pronoun, indefinite pronoun, and verb
Because then that having phrase would have modified either of the subject or the object, giving rise to an ambiguity.
Either this question is faulty or I am missing something else.

"Each" refers to "every Romance language", which is singular. Therefore "each" is required, rather than "all".
Nonetheless, even if the sentence were "A similar type of construction can be found in all Romance languages", then as well "each" would be better (as a subgroup modifier) because the implied meaning is that each language individually has a consistent order, not that all languages collectively have consistent orders.
