As memo serves there were three planes built in total. But Italy bought two of them only. One was the Do X-3 "Alessandro Guidoni" registered as I-ABBN and the second one was the Do X2 "Umberto Maddalena" with registration I-REDI. The Italian Dorniers were powered by the Fiat A-22R V12 water-cooled engines. Judging by the engine nacelle shape that could be one of them.


the pic source: the net.
 
IIRC the anchors would be stowed inboard during flight. The openings (hawsepipes?) were wide enough for the anchors to be lowered/raised through while in flight or on water. So if your model depicted the aircraft rigged for inflight the rectangular recess would have been there, but no anchors.
