Unfortunately, there are no data to determine which was what and it seems that there are so few images of them that none has surfaced so far.

The file on the Dornier 217 in the National Archives AIR40/ series does have some photos of Do 217 wrecks taken at Foggia. From memory, these mainly show details such as the "Giesskanne" tail guns, there isn't a good view of the airfield (or not more than a few square metres of it, anyway).
