The Shorts 330/360 used the following airfoil, Root NACA 63A418, Tip NACA 63A414. Nothing super critical, but it is a laminar flow section.

With respect to fuselage lift, it was a common statement in the days of the Victa Airtourer that the canopy generated some 25% or so of the lift. Whether that actually was the case I know not.
