I agree with you, this is not a type VIIA
Can you identified this U-Boat Type II ?
Hi!

Several Type II U-boats visited Lorient in the late summer and fall of 1940, according to the individual patrol records at uboat.net.

Type IIC: U-56, U-57, U-58, U-59, U-60, and U-61

Type IID: U-137, U-138

I cannot really tell from the photo which of these it might have been.
