NAA data plate should be on the left side of the cockpit just below the canopy rail and about 8" to 10" aft of the windshield frame and should be a 122- serial number. Assuming it's a D
USAAF data plate should be on the right side, just below the canopy rail and and about 15" aft of the windshield frame and probably be a 44- serial number, possibly a 45-.

It is a small plate which is attached with rivets.
They are visible below the R/H window just below the warning stencil about 1/3 of the way from the front about 10" above the radio control head. This is a P-51C cockpit.
