British 105mm Tank BE Smoke Shell Markings

Hi,

I was wondering if anyone could post a good picture or two of a British 105mm Tank BE smoke shell - specifically the stencil markings?

I've got a rough idea from some googling, but a picture paints a thousand words, etc.

Thanks,
Mark
 
Update: Have found a picture on the web that I think tells me what I need to know.

I assume the filling band and lettering is red? Also interesting that the lower half under the driveband is unpainted, but that'll save me some work.
