Not sure how the left vent even attaches, mine was silicone'd on, so I drilled & glued in some socket head cap screws, and repaired some broken bits on both left hand vent & drivers side fuel cover flap.

So all I did was drill some holes in the passenger side flap- a little bit deeper,where the snapped off lugs were meant to go, and glued in some stainless M5 Socket head cap screws (allen key bolts) then had to drill the holes in the body out just a little bit.
once the car all goes together, it will get nuts put on behind.
Not 100% but should be accessible from both boot behind wheel arch, & rear coupe trim access area in front of wheel arch.
An old bloke I know told me they used to prank their mates and pretend to open the fuel door but rip the passenger side off as a joke.

Ok cool thanks.
I've got a NOS one I found but I don't want to use it in slim to none chance it ever gets rotisseried and restored.
I might have a play with the busted one I've got and see if I can get it to fit and see how I go about locking it off.

Appreciate that :)

A small update,
Plenty of blocking back high fill, and now the boot jam is painted.
next boot lid goes on, and the final rub down, and paint time.
