Need help with a project (need more help see post #5)

Today I finally got started on my 1903a3 project:

I just started on it and these two screws just won"t budge:

I've got liquid wrench on them and hopefully they loosen up.
In the mean time any have suggestions?
(to loosen them up)

[ghost21]

15 min of liquid wrench and tap the screw driver/screw-head a couple times with hammer. Should be GTG.

A battery powered screwdriver with the clutch set real light. The vibration usually will loosen it up.

Update:

After much work - it finally came out
However the new stock doesn't fit quite right - so a bit of sanding is in order.

Still looks like the ejector.

I know this a dumb question but where in heck does it go?

[TMB 1]

There's a pin in front of the cutoff switch that holds the ejector in place.

You mean here?

Inside or outside?

[TMB 1]

Yes. On mine from the bottom the pin looks like a slotted screw, but it's a pin that slips in from the bottom. Is on the one I'm looking at right now anyway.

[TRICKSTER]

The ejector is mounted in the receiver left side wall with a pin that comes up from the bottom of the receiver. As TMB1 states, the pin looks like a slotted screw.

Here is a PDF for the 1903 see page 10. I like the WW2 manual better. I picked up a copy at a gun show. It has served me well.
