Nice parts !
Here some identifcations:
The part number with the first three digits "300" indicated a Spitfire MK I,
the number "329" a Spitfire MK II.
The part number
"32946" is from oil tank
"30041" is from radiator
"30050" should be from main chassis
"AGS" means Aircraft General Standart
Do you know the Pilot or the serial number of this Spitfire ?
Regards
Nils

I have not Idea if airplane was USA and I have no other part that can give some informations about airplane number. Surely it crashed before 13 may 1944.

if the part was used on a later model without being modified it would still have the "300" number. this would only change if the part was upgraded/ improved for a newer version of Spitfire.
so i think this must be at least a MKII.
looks like it could be desert camouflage paint as well. light brown?

Thanks. Yes colour on fuselage appear to be yellow sand with some part in green.

do you realise it could be American?. some USAAF fighter squadrons flew Spitfires in Italy.
If so, there should be a MACR.
that might be an easier way to start a search. American records are better than RAF ones and more readily available
not much, but it might give you a start
Cheers
