VC Dutchwest 2460 damper problem

[Mattyice]

This piece that the damper handle uses to open the damper plate has become detached. The screw has broken off in the damper plate and I am not sure what to do. I'm not even sure how to get the anchor bolt off of the stove as it is blocked on each side. Very new to this. Thanks in advance.

The screw can be drilled out and the hole retapped if necessary.
