Can I see a close up from the front as I am not sure if the cuirass is just painted.

With this helmet he could be a Westfalian as Roy suggested or a Saxon.

French line Lancer officer is another possibility.

Can I see a close up from his front because I am not sure that he wears a cuirass.

Could be a Saxon or Westfalian, but a French lancer officer is also possible.

If he's a French line lancer then he should have a turban on the helmet.
The shabraque and valise ae right for LC though.

I think it probably is the Line Lancer officer. I know I have some of these in a painted unit so I will compare them. The difficulty in getting too hung up on uniform details in identification is I am never 100% confident about how accurate the figures will be.
