I don't see any possibilities in the late Aug - early Oct 1944 period for P-38s. Anyone who appears to be still missing seems to have been lost well outside of Yugoslavia.
I have found several planes that were "last seen" on other places.
One was seen to crash into Adriatic, while it fell some 250km away in mainland.
In other case plane was last seen in Germany, while it landed safely in Montenegro.

It did happen that planes were misidenitified, especially if they lost formation.
