In pic 2, I think I'm missing a tile also. Are they easy to get spares?

The first one (pic #1) is relatively easy to fix back. #2 - not so easy. I once made some makeshift cradles out of shaped SS housing ties. The tiles are still hanging there 10 years on.

Push it up with a stick. Or get initmate with a tube of silicone

Lol at "get spares". But yes, tiles are still available

Matching up will be easy. You'll need tile and halves not just a tile where missing . Its a winchester cut detail and it will be a T&H cut on the angle

Picture 1 lift the flashing carefully as it looks dodgy anyway., remove two tiles over the slipped one.
Reposition and fix the slipped one, while your at it put a nail or screw through any tile hole visible.
Re assemble and dress lead back flat.

picture 2 pretty common this one, options are strip down from the top Cut new tile , nail it on , put tiles back
or, Cut your new tile to required shape, Its very likely the top of the original will still be up under the tiles above.
try and get it out.. but may be hanging on a nail.
If its too tricky then make a hook from Stainless steel, pump a load of adhesive in there , bed the tile down , bend up hook.

That's what I did. housing ties make ideal hooks.
