It does appear your missing the hold open and I'm not sure if that was normal for that vintage or not. Sure seems like it should be there.
I'd also order a set of those springs so they are both equal. There's plenty of room in there I doubt anything would bind but if it was mine I'd want matching springs.
I'll have to look at that worn piece in the picture on mine, not sure how it's put in there. I don't recall any wear like that on mine. I had it apart a few weeks back when I went through and checked and cleaned everything in the man cave.
