79 Squadron Camouflaged Jet provost T4 - Upper surface view?

Does anyone have a photo showing the upper surface of one of 79's camouflaged T4s? I've seen both the Xtradecals and CMR instructions, but as both miss a couple of things (Wing and tail wrap round for one) I'm a little cautious of using them without any back up.

 

Plenty of photos showing both sides and the undersides,but none that I can find showing 'up top'

Realised this evening there are two different camouflage patterns used on the 79 Sqn JPs. One has a green port nose  - so far, only two airframes identified in that scheme, but it does mean the top side could be different as well.

Just as an additional aid, the 5 aircraft known to use the camouflaged scheme were:

 

XP547 (03)

XP564 (04) (Crashed April 1982)

XR679 (04 no.2, replaced XP564 April 1982)

XS178 (05)

XS219 (06),

 

XR697 and XS219 are the two known to have the scheme with the green post side nose
