Does anyone have any info regarding the "Sherman Firefly Deep Wading Gear"???

I am busy constucting a scale model of a Sherman Firefly and I want to attach deep wading gear to it to represent a D-day firefly. Problem is the front-most wading box (the air-inlet for the engine). I have got pictures of the wading gear of the M4A4/Sherman III, but the front-most wading box on the firefly probably looked a little different because of the radio-box at the rear of the turret, which is in the way.
Does someone know what the front-most tube/box of the Firefly wadinggear looked like? probably a slight "detour" (?). Or maybe the engine breathed threw the tank-interior and turret-hatches????
Does anyone have any pictures of Fireflies with wading gear?
