Is there historical evidence for sub recon missions on Osaka harbor?

Do any of the submarine history buffs around here know if there is historical evidence for US submarines doing reconnaissance mission(s) on Osaka harbor? If not , I'll just ignore this one mission.

I'm somehow trying to rationalize committing in-game career suicide by attempting a photo recon mission in late 1943. Far too many warships and gunboats patrolling such shallow waters deep inside Japan. I would think intel would just send a spy instead of an expensive submarine and its crew.

I've gotten within 10 nautical miles of Osaka but that's about it.
