Anyone got good pictures or plans of the IJN Yamashiros top pagoda deck and its rangefinder/radar setup?

Im making the Aoshima 1944 Yamashiro. The kit and its flyhawk pe set are innacurate and have the 1942 upper pagoda decks. These were greatly modified and a new rangefinder and radar were added for 1944 and its destruction at Layte.

I cant find any plans of the change of shape so thats making scratch building very difficult.

Also is the new rangefinder larger than the old one. If it is do anyone make them or will I have to scratch it?
