Tony, after taking a second l o n g e r look at your photo: you say you have "managed to get the shutter to function", but both blade sets, aperture and shutter blades, are still wide open!? In the camera's present state cleaning the blades from the front is easily possible, you could try wetting the edges of the blades visible on the rim of the opening with a cotton swab and lighter fluid and/or ticking them with a toothpick to make them close. This is not a replacement measure for cleaning, but it helps you decide what your next steps towards a fully functional camera will be.
