Can anyone help?
I need to replace two of the screws that hold the lens mount ring onto the body, they are the left hand side ones if you are looking at the front of the camera. Also do they require some sort of holding nut underneath?
 
Is the half-moon shaped bar still under the back? There are no nuts to screw them into, nor is the body or frame threaded. The bar on each side clamps the ring firmly and in register (with the necessary spacers) to the front of the frame and external body. I usually glue the bar in place with contact cement before I try to deliver the flange up to the body but at the factory they didn't. Probably had a gadget that kept it in place until it was all assembled. Without that bar you're stumpted and will have to find one and screws someplace.

Look at the FSU forum repair hints at the top of the opening page. Someone here may have a replacement from a parts camera.
