very specific information needed german nightfigher pilot Kurt Matzak

Dear all,

I'm in touch with a relative of a downed Lancaster that was presumably shot down by a certain Kurt Matzak. Therefore I was wondering if anyone has any information about him.

First of all, can it be confirmed that he claimed Lancaster DV401 on the night 2/3 January 1944.

Second, does anyone know which airplane he flew. Probaby a 110 from NJG1 based at Leeuwarden, but could the code letters be found out?

Third, a picture would be very interesting.

Lastly, does anyone know what happened to him? All I can find online is that there are 18 victories to his name.

I know this sounds very much like a demands list, but I'm trying to be specific and brief. Any information anyone might have would be extremely welcome.
