Before you get to far, P-38's didn't have Interior Green wheel wells. Up through the G models the wells and struts were painted with Aluminum Lacquer. Starting in 1942, the H and early J models wells and struts were painted Neutral Grey. The late J and L models wells were unpainted aluminum and the struts Aluminum Lacquer. Some very late L models had Yellow Chromate in the wheel wells
Of course there was no hard and fast change date as existing stock was used up on the production line.
The F-5E's were modified from P-38J-25 airframes so could of had either Neutral Grey wells and struts or unpainted wells and aluminum lacquer struts.

No need I found a walk around featuring a F-5e saved all the pics now I just need to go and get that Green out of the wells. Next time I'll check the net and not the destructions. I wish I could find the photos, but Home PC won't find the same ones, Oh Well they are Neutral grey, I'm going with it. Thanks Rich!!
On the late J and the L models the gun camera was moved from the nose to an extended fairing on the left wing pylon. Both pylons had the fairing but only the left had the internal fittings for the camera installation.

Ok would that have been the same for the Recon Lightning, as what I've been finding had lots of differences, from gunship.
