There is a noticeable reduction in useage of class 313s on a Saturday, would I be correct in assuming that the guards that work these trains have booked work on Saturdays as OBS’s?
I don’t believe guards work as OBS or vice versa. Its two separate roles.

They certainly do have door control panels which they can open and close local door or all doors, signal the driver etcDo 377s not have door control panels though, just with door close buttons, drivers release?
Yes they do, as they were guard dispatched from their inception up until the DOO reforms 5 years ago.Do 377s not have door control panels though, just with door close buttons, drivers release?

This is AFAIK due to restrictions on DOO services on the WCML377s are still guard dispatched on the Milton Keynes services. Driver release though
