Yes
More information is necessary. If the rifle has a 4-lug bolt head, it is the same as a Mossberg 810. Research the 810 for info on this rifle. It may be made on FN Mauser 98 actions, in which case it will be like any other Mauser 98 sporter. Otherwise, it will be German made by Heym and is either the same as a Mauser 2000 or Mauser 3000 action. The scope, on the other hand, is almost impossible to describe these days. It will likely have Japanese optics.
you can get that mount at mid way
Absolutely. If it is truly a collector's grade, sell it and buy a cheaper one with an excellent barrel--you'll have enough money left over to have the gunsmithing work done and to pay for the scope.
Mauser k98 value $475
if it did not come with the provision to mount a scope on it you can take it to a gunsmith and have it drilled and tapped for one.
Two methods- one uses a long eye relief scope, and the mount is ttached to the ear sight base- known as a "Scout" mount. The other method uses a scope mount that is attached by drilling and tapping the reciever- but the bolt handle must be modified to a bent shape to clear the scope.

Best left to a good gunsmith
YES! any one of them will devalue the gun because then the gun will no longer be original. you would have a worthless pice of junk if you alter it in any way. do NET stain the stock. do NOT blue the bolt. do NOT mount a scope on it. unless you don't care what the value of the gun is after you do those things.
Hello: Weaver offers a scope base for the Marlin Model 512 Slugmaster, contact Weaver for a complete package. Thanks side scope mount (Weaver 10M)
Primarily in the number and location of the points where the bolt locks to the reciever. The Enfield cocks on opening, the Mauser on closing. The shape of the bolt face, and the extractors are different, since the Enfield uses a rimmed cartridge, the Mauser a rimless.
