A Bell 407 has arrived. dark livery. camo ?

ID unknown sofar.

On Monday it was still parked at KLM Cargo.
The registration was difficult to see due to the cargo in front of it.
I think its Italian.
What looked like I-ED.. was painted in a large format on the aft fuselage, but still hard to read.

The Italian 407 most likely has been I-ECGX,
