Where is the photo of the broken part? I can ID it if I see it.
Likely your forend latch not seating is was simply a matter of needing to squeeze the forebd a little harder. They should not just fall into place with no effort. Unless they are very worn out.
Your gun also has had its case color redone by cyanide method. At least on the forend iron. Maybe something warped some in that process and caused the issue.
