Lossiemouth/Elgin Wellingtons of 20 OTU

I wish to build several scale models of 20 OTU Wellingtons based at Lossiemouth and Elgin. I know the code letters carried by the various flights of the OTU were
JM Apr 1940 - Jul 1945
XL May 1940 - Jul 1945
YR May 1940 - Jul 1945
ZT xxx 1940 - xxx 1943
MK Jul 1944 - Mar 1945
AI xxx xxxx - Mar 1945
I have identified several Wellingtons using these codes with serial number tie ups but am having great difficulty in sourcing photos of 20 OTU aircraft. So far I have found one for a Wellington Mk.X of the OTU - MF or MP571 JM-U. Can anyone help with more images? I have searched books and the internet exhaustively but have had no luck. (I am not looking for photos of R-Robert recovered from Loch Ness).
