I confirm it should be a G-14/AS due to the presence of the "cold start device" (the round hatch visible just below the starting handle) in the lower position, trademark of the DB 605A-AS engines (on the "D" version it was moved upward of some inches, resulting at the same level of the starting handle hole)
