Great work on Bisquit!

I have much of that original hardware, but ended up having to replace the bow and stern chocks with SS. That old pot metal isn't super strong - two of them broke in storms and..... too Humpty Dumpty to put them together again.

The fitting on the foredeck is for a cowl vent. These photos are of Lucky Dawg's vent. It screws in and has a pin with a spring at the bottom (that you may be able to see) so that you can point it any 360* direction and lock it temporarily in that in place. I've toyed with painting the inside red, but haven't done so as of yet.
