I think this is a good match for O. astrophela. The yellowish colour seems to be indicative cf. O. helena
A first sighting for NatureMapr and NatureMapr's Hunter Region if confirmed. Excellent photos.

I think the superficial intra-species variability excedes the inter-species differences.

@JenniferS Are you sure this is the right location for this sighting, as the species shown, Bellatorius major is not naturally found this far west, but rather inhabits coastal areas e.g Gosford at this latitude.
Also, the photos are taken in and around a dwelling, but the location is given as a wilderness area, without any dwellings nearby.
