In 21AG, they were used by GAD, 6GTB, 15/19H as at 30/6/44. The RAC returns do not specify Stuart type by the 31/12/44 return but they seem to have gradually replaced the M3A1 and M3A3 as the campiagn went on. I do not have detailed data on 15AG in Italy so can't help you there.

Mods would have been British radios and antennas and fire extinguishers at least. The stowage diagrams from Bovington will show any others and I assume you know the Tamiya rear hull is too short and the Tamiya idler brackets are the lighter type used on the M3.

For colours, I suggest looking at http://www.mafva.org/resources
