It would if it has distributed camera system like DAS. The undernose EO sensor is not part of that system, DAS is many small cameras distributed all over the airframe.
And J-20 IIR cameras all through out its fuselage just like DAS, if you wanna research it go to J-20 discussion thread on China section

If grey material is composite, then most of the wing seems to be composite material.

Shape is different to me from block-2

Swept tail is missing and pitot heads are also fewer

Wait and see

i have to say longer/ thinner and similar nose like L-15

IMO nothing of the so far rumored or hyped things and as I and many other reasonable ones expected, only minor but important changes: No swept tail, no larger wing, no flatter nose - and the prototype surely has no AESA fitted yet - no mayor additional changes but new sensors and systems.

The most important changes are under the skin, which is more or less the same.

Swept Tail was expected as B3 is based on dual seater.
