@萌虎鲸@Oneninety. However per my understanding, it was actually observed by someone else in Chengdu but it seems to be credible enough that such thing exists. Allegedly the aircraft has been already been in grey painting.

Did they mention if this was the "2051" AKA J-20B configuration?
Why no photos?
It takes me a lot of time to dig out where the original rumor comes from, and it seems to be from here
The rumor is said to be the exact "2051" series number which was seen half a year ago. So the "2051" somehow returned from YanLiang to Chengdu for a engine refit and will probably be back to Yanliang for more testing after maiden flight in Chengdu.
The maiden flight is said to be in the next few days.
I think someone will "leak" them after the maiden flight then Webio be mad again how this is "leaked" and Little Yellow Minion posted them again on Twitter.
Why do you expect there to be photos?
Dudes are getting arrested for taking/posting photos nowadays. Crack down has gotten a lot worse. One guy got sentenced to one year in prison for flying a drone over Type 003 and it made national television.
Welp…for a landmark event this big let’s hope they’re a little lenient…
Another in Southern Theater Command.
