British Bikes / parts for 1930's James with Villiers 2E motor

Hi
Can anyone help me with the following
1. Toolbox. the attached is a photo of the toolbox on my bike but I do not know what parts are missing and what they look like eg the cover, the clasp or locking mechanism etc. Clearly on the front are some small slots etc etc but I am unsure what to go looking for?? I think the cutout at the top may have been a modification by the owner and not necessary original other than being a space to somehow fix a hinge?
2 The second attachment shows the front forks and then highlighted is the frame going under the tank to which it is fastened and then two tubes going down to the motor. Sorry this piece is sitting on top of the main frame and front forks in this picture. Quite complex and I wonder whether anyone has any good pictures of this assembly and even whose design this complex part of the frame was designed by. I see reference to documents saying Bakers patented frame but whether correct or not I just do not know and cannot find any info.
Hope someone can assist
David
