Pooch, the screws are Robertson head used on early Canadian Model A's imported into Australia. They are a bit rare and indicate your car maybe quite original is it ?? I would pay care not to lose them. The 2 slotted ones on the bottom of the panel have probably been replaced at some stage.
Regarding the hole in the timber for your cut out switch I would wait before cutting the hole especially if it is quite an original car. You can put one straight on the battery post but and just have to open the battery cover to access it - thats what I did & you really only need to turn it off when you park it in the garage for safety sake.
