Jim,
I'm not aware of the USMC having L16's. I have seen a few photo's of the L16 in Army OD color and some field applied camouflage.
If you want it in Marine colors paint it that way, good luck.

Unlikely as they were only flown by the new USAF and the Army. Some were actually traded back and forth. You will see photos of two in Navy livery but these were invented by the restorer and are not authentic.
