In this simple case I would simply divide a list element by x ;-).

In general it is a bit more difficult, but you could use

   cout << "list of wild(1)-replacements:" << endl;
   for (int i=0; i<ocurrences.nops(); ++i)
   {  lst repls;
      ocurrences.op(i).match(wild(1)*x, repls);
      cout << wild(1).subs(repls, subs_options::no_pattern) << endl;
   }

Best wishes,
