I think the S/42 on the frame makes the frame numbers correct regardless of size or shape and more correct without a letter suffix. The pistol obviously had some repair work done along the way. The B-90 S-92 is the most rare of the G-S/42 acceptance marks. You will only find these pistols between serial number 5700a and 8400a. Not exact, but very close. The Drooped eagle 211 and S-92 acceptance marks will be found between 700d and 6000d plus or minus a few. The straight wing eagle might be a depot repair mark. Really cannot see the detail. As a standard acceptance mark the "Straight wing Eagle" did not appear as a standard acceptance mark until 1937 although authorized in 1935. What is the serial number and letter suffix of the DE-211 S-92 G-date. Good Luck
