Unintended Extrusions?

I'm having a problem with a print on my Prusa i3 MK3 printer. I'm trying to print this part (along with several others on the same plate). The part is highlighted in green.

However, when I print it, it has a lot of unintended diagonal extrusions. Some parts of the perimeter aren't complete either. Here's a picture of the result:

Also, here's a preview of the slicing in Slic3r PE - these diagonal lines don't show up!

Here's the gcode.

People on reddit have suggested retraction and/or stringing issues. Is this on the right track? I reprinted the part by itself and with the "Avoid Crossing Perimeters" option checked. The print turned out perfectly fine. I'd like to identify what happened though.

PLA
0.3 mm layer height
210ºC hotend
60ºC bed
35 mm/s retraction speed
1 mm minimum travel after retraction
