There may be open source photos, but don't even think of being a crewmember taking them or distributing them.
Unless broken down, getting a helo into a 747 is a very tight squeeze. The issue is not the noseloading, but the reduced ceiling height in the front caused by the upper deck. Using the side door requires breaking them down so you can turn them.
