You've already tracked down all my resources, but I'm confident that the launch plane was 130747. Some of the color photos on the China Lake archive show in-flight views of '747 with the NOTSnik under the port wing, plus a belly instrument pack. There's one pic of a NOTSnik on 130745 (the gray/white Ford with the nose probe), but it's a ground shot, nothing in-flight. '745 may have flown some chase missions, but at least one other plane did this too, an FJ-4 with side number 308.
If you look closely you'll see that 130747 sported white trimmers, possibly replacements, and wing undersurfaces were painted fluorescent red-orange for visibility. It also carried the earlier, more tapered tailcone. Don't know about Tamiya's 1/48 F4D, but their 1/72 version has the late tailcone. These planes were early pre-production models used for testing (see Ginter's F4D Skyray), and apparently never got updated with the later cone.
I've got a 1/72 Airfix F4D kit (w/early cone) waiting for this livery, but all I've done so far is lay out the decals on my computer. The holdup is trying to match Dark Sea Blue for the background color behind the white letters. It's been so long now the printer ink has probably dried out. If I ever get back to it, I'll still need to scratchbuild the launch vehicle, but that doesn't appear overwhelming. Good luck with yours, and I'd love to see pics along the way.
