Bf 109 G, with wooden tail unit?

From RAF Crashed Enemy Aircraft reports dated, 24.08.44 and 20.11.44, list a few Bf 109's with wooden tail units,
Werk Nr 165614, 10+(white) near Escoville, and Werk Nr 109163860, 9+1 (black) Call-sign VT+FI, found near St Pierre sur Dives.
Other 109's are mentioned but with no Werk Nr's, how common were these tail units?
These reports also give details, by Werk Nr only, of many other aircraft found at other locations including, Valframbert, Brussels Melsbroek, Brussels Evere, Antwerp Duern, Eindhoven and many Bf109's and Fw190's at Reims Champagne.
Thanks
Joe
