I have an Acer motherboard (MS-7829 v1.1) that I believe came from an old Gateway computer. I plan on using it for a new build. The problem is - it's missing the plate, lever, and screws that hold the processor in the socket. Picture --> http://www.buildcomputers.net/images/installing-a-cpu.jpg

I've called Acer, and they were unable to help because the warranty on the mobo is voided.

I've searched all over google for a spare without any luck. Please help.

I think your best bet would be to hunt for any motherboard with same socket (1155 in picture, you talk of 1150 though) broken or working and remove the missing parts from that.
Some computer electronic stores might or might not have broken board laying around or... if you are friends with some electronic recycling center guys, you might get the parts that way.

Past that, Only option could be buying brand new board with same socket and recycling parts from that... cannibalism at it's finest.
Doesn't mean that the board you have NOW is intact. missing parts usually mean something else might be broken/cracked also.
