Re: USAAF chemical tanks
There was considerable effort put into DDT spraying on the India-Burma front, I believe, to reduce the incidence of malaria, although I don't recall seeing any photos. I have seen a photo of a Fw 58 fitted with similar devices, though presumably not DDT in this case.
However, yet another possibility is smoke generators, as were carried by RAF Bostons in their bombbays.

Smoke generators were carried on the standard wing bomb racks of B-25, also by earlier models than B-25J-25, what is mentioned to be the first block with modificated racks for "chemical tanks". I've found this photo of a chemical tank from the same period (not used on B-25!), which was strictly for use with chemical weapons, not for pesticides or napalm (as per my expectations).
