Regardless of what they might claim, that is no P-38L.

That Red Bull P-38 has the small, swept back "Lightning MkI & MkII" through
to P-38G nacelle chin vents. Also there are no turbo-superchargers.

This is a P-38L. Note the larger nacelle chin vents;

Well... the serial number makes her a L, the external view doesn't. She
was used as a racer, and eventually underwent some modifications, which
may lead to an (X)P-38 (something) designation...
Same questions are asked about Zero modified T-6's...
Some even refer to her as a F-5 G !
