Branse Burbridge's Havoc II and other Havoc stuff

I'd like to build a Havoc II using the MPM Turbinlite kit as a starting point. The sprue shots show the kit comes with the standard solid nose as well as the turbinlite nose.
Can anyone tell me the serial number for the Havoc II coded VYoC Burbridge flew in June 1942?
Also, I understand these aircraft were converted and had 12 .303's in the nose. I haven't been able to find any pics showing the layout. Can anyone help with this? I assume his a/c would have been plain night (black)?
Finally, from what I could find on the 'net, a Canadian by the name of Gordon Learmonth Raphael was the only pilot to achieve ace status in Havocs. Is this correct? Can anyone tell me the codes and serial of the Havoc II he flew with 85Sq in July-Aug 1942? The Ciel de Gloire site also has him flying one in Sep 1941, but I don't know if that's a typo or not. I assume the a/c would also have been black?
Thanks
