I think it has 2 X 20mm in the nose along with a 7.9mm and another 7.9mm in the tail.

Ummm, what armament did the G-2 have?

1200kg of bombs (with basic A2A armament).

or

37mm BK 3.7 (Flak 18) with 72 rounds.

or

Two 30mm Mk 108s with 135 rounds per gun coupled with two 20mm MG151/20 in the lower part of the fuselage.

The 110/R5 could hold the 37mm Bk 3.7 as well as the two 30mm.

There was also an option to install a GM1 (power boost) system, which required the removal of the ventral gunner position take accomodate the 1,400lb GM 1 system.

Yes there's 2x something hanging from the belly.
Had to browse my books, but couldn't find any other additional ventral tray weapons for G-2 than single 37mm flak cannon (G-2/R1).
OTOH, G-4/R3 had "Waffenwanne 151Z" ventral tray housing a pair of 20mm MG151 cannons...?

The belly guns are Waffenwanne 151Z ventral tray housing two forward firing 20mm MG 151 cannon. These were an option.

It should have two 30mm Mk 108 Cannon with 135 rounds per gun and two 20mm MG 151 Cannon with 300 rounds(port) and 350 rounds(starboard).

Plus two 7.92mm MG 81 in rear cockpit

or two 20mm MG 151 Cannon in Schrage Musik installation (Firing Obliquely forward)?

Do we get the Schrage Musik ? :)

There was also an option for two obliquely upward firing MG 151/20 cannons to use against bombers such as the Lancaster that had no defensive armament at the keel. This mod, however, was mostly used on the later versions of the G series 110; which were designed specifically for night-fighting. The G-2 was a pure day fighter.

According to the screenshot posted, our G-2 will also be able to carry 4x WGr. 21 210mm mortars. Unfortunatly at their present state in the game these mortars are virtually useless. As they are options for the 190 and 109.

The AH 110G-2 has 2 x 30mm and 2x20mm standard for forward firing armament.  There is no option for 30 cal nose armament.  In addition to drop tanks, you can either load a twin 20mm package or 2 x 250kg bombs under the fuselage and 4 x 50kg bombs or 2 or 4 21cm rockets on the wings.

AFAIK, the Schrage Musik installation was only used on the G-4.

The 21cm rockets in 1.09 will be different for better and worse.  The better side is that they'll now launch in accordance with their upward mounted angle which will make them easier to aim.  The worse side is that I found their weight when mounted on aircraft to be 100lbs too light so the new rockets will carry more of a performance detriment.
