Bugeye Spite Lock Rod Assembly

My hood is no longer latching on my '60 Sprite. Any tips before replacing whole assembly?
It’s a pretty simple mechanism. Does the latch still rotate a full 1/4 turn moving the two rods outward? Assuming they are both still in place, are the little plates that the 2 rods slide into lined up correctly?
