Hi Padre,
The front appears to be similar to mine (or wreath appears to be a bit worn). The S certainly looks the same, even has the little flat spot in the lower curve.
Though, yes, the back is another thing. You can make out the S indentation on my, though it is hard to capture in a photo.

Going by your thoughts, these ‘unofficial/converted’ metal S wings could have started to appear sometime in 1945?

Yes could have, though I think it is more likely to be have after 1945

The RAAF also introduced the ‘S’ wing in 1944, the title being ‘Wireless operator (Air)’ as well.

Yes, sorry you are correct. That was my error.
More research needed I think.
Cheers
