Hello Philippe,
I have just seen a photo of B-17G 42-31982 "Superstitious Aloysius" from 91st BG. It is the color Olive Drab.
42-31982 and 42-32007, type B-17G-35-BO, produced in same batch at Boeing Seattle plant. So I think the color is the same.
But during the month February 1944 the natural unpainted aluminum finish B-17G models arrived to U.K. from USA.
Kind regards
