I actually only need one screw that attaches the left side plate of the waist lever finder. When I open it up the left side flops around, pivoting on the on remaining screw. I suppose if I get a whole parts unit when more of them fall out I might have what I need.
 
Are you looking for the screw that holds the finder to the body or a screw in the finder? I do have a "good for parts only" finder here.
 
It is a screw in the finder. there is a U shaped bracket that holds the left and right plates that also acts as the hinge. 2 screws hold it, one of mine fell out somewhere. Attached is a pic of the problem I am having.Other than that it is in decent shape. I picked up a C22 body from fleabay for the WLF to replace this one (I think I paid a whole $20 for it with shipping) and found the camera is in good, though dirty, shape. It needs seals and new leather, both are on the way. Will be nice as a backup and studio camera when done but that dang old screw......

Take the remaining screw to your nearest hardware store and have someone match it. Not a HOME DEPOT or LOWES a local store. We have a great hardware store here and it has literally thousands of screws of every imaginable size and pitch.
