Not sure but it was first seen on A/C 229 which was also fitted with IFR system.

it looks more like an illumination source for night time in flight refueling than MAWS

Looks like ejection ports are for dumb bombs, not for AAM.
Why there are no markings/numbers on the plane?

You are correct

Earlier when i said that it was a light like that installed on upgraded Jaguars (pop out) to assist in night time refueling, some of you argued how can a side looking light help in this regard and insisted to be MAWS on the JF-17, but now we are back to initial judgement.
