you can make out some of the cowling mounted instruments too

There are no cowling mounted instruments. Three small instruments were mounted on the engine, and there were three small circular windows for mechanics to look though to see what the readings were. On the Bf 110 G-2, G-3 and G-4, this changed to a single triangular window, the tips of which were rounded, not pointed.

A little bit more than a technicality. Here is what was bolted onto the engine. Top dial was propeller pitch; bottom left was engine temperature, and bottom right was oil pressure.

Weren't these more for the pilot's use while flying as they weren't replicated in the cockpit?

Given the size of the circular windows, as evidenced in the photo below, I don't think the pilot would be able to see through the tiny windows and on to the dials further in the engine cowling...
