SAS part of the Army surely? SBS - Marines/Navy I believe.

All blue stuff is RAF only I would think (RAF Regiment Etc - it might be National Servu=ice RAF stuff). I think the naval stuff would be Khaki Blanco.

Obviously please do correct me if I'm in error.

SAS in Europe did come under the AAC (Army Air Corps) as did other Airborne units. This is not the same as the RAF.
The Royal Navy I am not expert in but un blancoed khaki webbing or white blancoed webbing depending on role and location would be most likely.

Post war RAF national service webbing.

Of very little use to you really unless you want to get new basic pouches and cake it all in blanco to try and get it green and unify any shade difference.

Painting the seams would be the worst! :?

I tried blancoing RAF stuff to green in the past. It didn't really work. The blue showed through...

Paint or shoe cream might work, but blanco certainly didn't.

My Pistol holster is an ex-RAF one, used the liquid blanco on it after soaking it in water first, one coat and its still showing green with no other colour showing through, even the seams!, just not done the inside as couldn't be bothered
