Aron, it's difficult to tell from your pictures but it appears the right hammer may not be original to the gun. It appears to be unengraved, but again it could just be a bad angle in the picture.
I would suggest you have the dent raised in the barrel, assure yourself of the safe function of the gun and then take it out and shoot it. What ever form of restoration you decide to do can be considered over time. A replacement stock will be a challenge to find and will likely need to be properly refit to the action. The top quality stock makers can make a stock of the correct grain figure and profile it to original shape and length of pull of your choice. The resulting stock will be top notch and look way finer than the rest of the gun. However, the price will likely be worth more than the guns value, even before any other work being done. There are men around that are not professional stock makers that could likely do a good enough job to make a stock to look close to correct for a more reasonable price.
