The Historic Naval Ships Association has a lot of information on line for the 40mm Bofors, both US and British documents.

There are many drawings in these manuals showing parts, including illustrated parts breakdown and parts lists.

Re: Bofors CAD files sought.
Hello all,
I have the same problem working on an 1:72 WWII escort carrier.
I'd need a CAD file or STL for 3D printing of the twin Bofors 40 mm incl. mount. As I need 36 of them, buying them online is not an option.
The links on this page seem dead, what I would need is a detailed drawing showing all dimensions. Worst case I draw the thing myself and print the key parts.
I would appreciate if any of you could send me drawings of this gun.
