1863 Springfield question

I am thinking about purchasing an 1863 Springfield that has one of the pins missing from the receiver just to the left of the hammer. Can someone tell me what these pins(or screws) are and can they be replaced or repaired? I am trying to post a picture. Here is the link to the auction. http://www.gunbroker.com/Auction/ViewItem.aspx?Item=375626869
