The trunking marked 'Silver' is correct. There is also an actuating ram for the radiator exit flap, placed centrally which, from what I can see form the Arthur Bentley scale drawings, is either mounted on, or through, the trunking.
The underside recognition/signalling lamp was normally an amber colour on British aircraft. Although, as Wojtek remarked, coloured bulbs were often used for navigation lamps, as far as I know, the lens cover was actually tinted on the underside lamp. However, I've only actually seen this on the Hurricane and Spitfire, but I would think the Typhoon would have been the same.
I was hoping to get a closer look at the RAF Museum's Typhoon, as I ran out of time when I was in the Conservation Centre at Cosford, but now that's it's about to depart for Canada, there's not much hope of photographing such details now!
