I believe what you are looking for can be found in the "North American Aviation Preliminary Parts Catalog for the P-51H" ASIN: B00275AEDO or the manual for "Structural Repair Instructions for Army Model P-51H Series Mustang Airplane."

Regarding the airfoil; the document I mentioned gives true coordinates of one section. I don't know if it's NACA 45-100 or not, I don't have coordinates to compare. Anyway, in documentation it's called as NAA-NACA compromise so I don't believe it's a plain  45-100. Below is a direct link:

The coordinates can be easily converted to the Profili2 format by  multiplying the values with 100.

The coordinates Stoney linked are the same which are allready in the Profili2 database.

No, I think only the P-51H airfoil is in the database.  The B/D airfoil is not a NACA 45100, its merely listed and referred to commonly as a 45-100.  That could be a North American designator--I don't know.  In the UUIC database, its listed as P511DROOT and P51DTIP or something like that--listed just above the H airfoil files.

It is NOT safe to click that image.

doing so will cause 2 pop-ups to try and load depending on your web browser settings, both pop ups are of the adult variety.......
