The white house (by the opening "crash " scene in the SMQ film 1971 ) is further north near to Zone F on MB

Pam wins the prize of a drink from you all in a couple of weeks. That is Indianapolis with the old Arnage camping site on the left. Maybe I'll dig out some more and rest you!

if you notice i used white house and not Masion Blanche, as you go into the Indianapolis corner there is a white house/castle type structure on the right and that is what i was referring to.
anyway the White House you refer to has gone hasn't? it was part of the old road run up to the grandstands, the road flips in at the Porsche curves now.
what do i know, it's only a car race.
here's one i made earlier

The "castle like structure" you refer to Pam is the marshal's post there. Maison Blanche used to part of the old circuit before the Porsche Curves were introduced and as you rightly say was demolished for the improvements. Yippee, get my press passes today! Anyway, congratulations on winning and beating the Gods!

Good aerial shot, isn’t that the area of the Canadian Flight Crew memorial? |

I see that UFO's still there on the Bugatti hairpin?
In fact, now I think about it, it's been a while since I've been up towards Tetre Rouge. We used to make a loop of it, walking up the outside of the circuit, through the fair to Tetre Rouge, then cross the track via the little underpass to the inside of the circuit and then walk back to the village keeping the track on our right. Calling in at the Railway Bar for a well earned snifter before eating our body weights in Grand Marnier Crepes. It doesn't look like that's possible now, or do they rig up some sort of pedestian route just for the race week? The new banking at TR looks like it's definitely worth a visit.
