I'm in the midst of painting my Syria JagdPanzer from the same conflict.
Now I don't have specific knowledge of the T-34, but i can tell you what I learned about the Jagdpanzer-- there is only ONE black and white photo.
However if came from a batch of vehicles from Czechoslovakia, including tracked artillery and Panzer IVs.
A number of the PzIVs were captured. Some still exist in museums in Israel. But they have been repainted.
However, there are photos of them nearly immediately after capture--
Is a good one. Notice the PzIV is a dark green shade, very similar to the Soviet Bloc Green the T55 is wearing. To me this was the most logical shade to paint my JagdPanzer in...
using a similar method, there are some photos of knocked out Syrian T-34/85s. For example:
Certainly looks like the paint was a dark green originally to my eye.
Ed Okun (who've I've "met" on a Facebook group about arab-israeli modeling, and has given liberally a few pointers to me), has a nice write up of his build with some good photos here:
