Maybe you misunderstood what I was trying to say. (It wouldn't be the first time I've not said something other than what someone thought I wasn't trying to say but didn't.

Find a Simplex lever mount, the kind that slips over the right-side stud and has another stud on the left. You should be able to find one with levers and all, which will include screws and everything you'll need. No problem.
If you can't find one, use any lever set but place it above the stud and leave the stud in place for now while you keep looking. Once you knock that stud off you will have ruined the frame.
