That's just what I thought: "Those aren't Mk.1 intakes".

As for the serial, try XV342:
http://www.blackburn-buccaneer.co.uk/S2_XV342_files/S2_XV342.html

Based on the history on that page, the caption in the original post must
refer to a different drawing.

Considering the vast quantity of good posts from Joseph, I think the odd
typo can be forgiven.
