Open translation for this passage
ἐς Οἰνέα ἀνὰ χρόνον τοῖς Καλυδωνίοις ἐλαφρότερον γενέσθαι λέγουσι καὶ αἰτίαν τῇ θεῷ τῆς ἐπικλήσεως ἐθέλουσιν εἶναι ταύτην.
The sentence has coordinated λέγουσι and ἐθέλουσιν with a shared infinitival construction: γενέσθαι is governed by λέγουσι, while εἶναι is governed by ἐθέλουσιν; ταύτην is the predicative accusative subject complement of εἶναι, referring to the preceding explanation/αἰτίαν.

τὸ μὲν σχῆμα τοῦ ἀγάλματος θηρεύουσά ἐστιν, ἐλέφαντος δὲ καὶ χρυσοῦ πεποίηται, Ναυπάκτιοι δὲ Μέναιχμος καὶ Σοΐδας εἰργάσαντο·
The first predicate is textually/syntactically difficult: θηρεύουσα is feminine nominative despite neuter σχῆμα, likely agreeing with an understood feminine figure or subject; the remaining clauses describe the material and makers.
