Aferguson, don't quote me on this but I think the a6m2's had a tank in each wing and a third one mounted in the front portion of the fuselage. If you have BBi's zero you'll see two circles on the upper surface of each wing, inboard of the cannons. I believe the red circle is the fuel access hatch while the fuselage coloured hatch is there to allow light in when accessing the ammunition bays from underneath the wing.
