LG106 (Middle East & 451 RAAF based there)

Does anyone know the exact location of LG106 (I believe that it was about 100 miles west of Alexandria) and its fate after the war? I believe that 451 squadron left 3 aircraft there in Feb 1944, as they were grounded through lack of spares after they successfully trialed a new type. They are designated SOC on the date the 451 left. Could there possibly be anything left? I noticed that the wreck of the Blenheim was still in situ on an old airfield.....so they weren't necessarily picked clean.
