Managed to get it solved with the following server block:
server {
listen 80 default_server;
listen [::]:80 default_server ipv6only=on;
server_name l2ovc.com www.l2ovc.com;
root /usr/share/nginx/html;
index index.php;
error_page 404 /404.php;
error_page 500 502 503 504 /50x.html;
location ~ \.php$ {
try_files $uri /404.php;
fastcgi_pass 127.0.0.1:9000;
fastcgi_index index.php;
fastcgi_param SCRIPT_FILENAME $document_root$fastcgi_script_name;

}
}
