Mus, looking good.

I think you're missing the small vent plate with all the holes drilled in it - lower front left fuselage.   Think you got it on the other side though...

I believe that vent cover was for an air filter. The holed cover was often replaced with a solid cover in service. Missing the holes isn't really an issue as there's tons of photos showing it replaced as described.
