Well from the help of ian_ , Jb4046 , and Danmark. I'm convinced this is a navigational light mount. The photos that were shown look strikingly similar. Thanks for pointing me in the right direction ian_ ! I will check out that series of books as well. So far ive been using the 'Walk around' series of books by squadron/signal publications. They are good reference books, but they dont cover everything.
Best regards- Jarret
This is 4 year old subject but just came across it and had to add my 2 cents. The visible part of the stencil "lack gerspritzt" is computer translated as "lacquer sprayed" . Playing around with it I added "nicht mit" and "nicht mit lack gespritzt" translates as "not sprayed with varnish" ! Kind of an odd stencil for an aircraft ! AND the yellow paint looks transparent, overlapping the red stencil in places, at least to my eyes. The original yellow paint I've seen on a ME-109 awaiting restoration is opaque.
