A least one is not accurate.

1) Which one (S) and why ?

2) There is a tube / cylinder / pipe / trunk (?) on the hull left side. What it is, what is its purpose ?

First picture is ausf. G , but there is not binocular feature (periscope) of driver;
Second picture is ausf. D2, but there is early gray-camo instead 1943 dunkelgelb factory camo.

Right.

And the last is a A.

Point, if you take attention, pictures names are explicites. First is G.jpg, second D.jpg and last is A.jpg.

Most obvious mistake(s) is always to discover.

Ok

G model is about correct but like XAHTEP39 said the rotative driver pericscope is not perfectly modelled.

The obviously faulty model is the model D. The grey 433 here. D is the earliest model (not the A)

The one we have here, is supposed to be early D serie. However Panzerblitz hint was good upper side, so the turret, is incorrect.

D model had binocalur aiming optic, not monocular. D model had a round hatch on turret side for ammo reloading purpose. D turret had also one hole on each turret side ( but front) for crews can use personnals weapons (mp40 for exemple) against ennemies soldiers outside.

/joke on ; panther 433 cant be in BK game, because it had been captured at Koursk im 1943 and later sent in UK. /joke of

I also found for you a panther G in an unconfortable position. However in allows to see it from an unsual angle. Now we can argue on minor détails, such as engine ventilation grids possibly not correct on BK G model, but I think it is little details. On A, aiming optic is perhasp not exactly were it would have been ect ... For this one, focus was on major faults ; D model turret.
