Questions about upcoming I-485 interview

My husband applied for my green card based on his employment based permanent resident application which was approved 1 month after filing for mine. Now my I-485 interview has come up in Baltimore, MD in July. I have the following queries--

1. His green card has been lost even before we received it and USCIS has now asked him to apply for a replacement. His passport has been stamped though. Would this stamp be enough to prove his permanent resident status during the interview or the physical green card is crucial?

2. Do we need to take an affidavit of support by him for me?

3. In the list of required documents to bring along for the interview is my "Passport and photo identification (state driver's license or state identification card)". I do not have the driver's license or state identification card. And to get a new one made here in Maryland you need to wait almost 2 months, which would mean that my interview date would have long passed! What can I do about this? Is there any other document I can take to serve as photo identification?

Any help would be immensely appreciated. Thanks.
