Default Releasing company fuse from mounting board and cooker cable size?

I want to cut about 2" of the top of the board that holds an electricity
meter and the company fuse. To do this I need to remove the board. I can
see how to unscrew the meter, but there are no visible screws for the
company fuse. Will these become visible if I remove the fuse itself, and
can they be safely removed to release the fuse holder from the board?

At the moment the electric oven and hob are fed from a 30 amp fuse using
what I would call a thick cable.

I have found that MK sell a consumer unit populated with RCBOs. This has
two 32A RCBOs presumably for two ring mains and one 40A RCBO which I
assume is intended for an oven and hob (cooker).

If I want to use a 40A RCBO what is the minimum size of cable I need to
have to be sure that it is good for the 40A.
