While I'm sure the values of the vertical fin that run from the cockpit to the rear of the car are tremendous they sure make modern LMP cars unattractive. The car looks great from the front and rear but the profile is nasty. Hopefully once the cammo film is off it will look better?

In-Line 4 looks more and more likely.

Also- lithium-ion battery system for energy storage.
The smaller the engine = more room for the hybrid drive components......

True, but more likely due to efficiency requirements for next year.

Here are a couple of speculations for Porsche's LMP1 livery:

http://autosprint.corrieredellosport.it/2013/11/05/la-porsche-vestira-martini-a-le-mans-lo-scoop-di-autosprint/11483/ (this one is in Italian).
Because France doesn't allow alcohol or tobacco advertising, the second one (Martini livery) is doubtful. However, Martini, apparently, could circumvent this law by using their clothing brand to sponsor the team.

Martini can leave stripes I believe. Anyway, it is highly doubtful that any of these versions will come true.
