Correct, Airbus sends both A330 and A350 to XFW for paint. Another A350 may follow once the A330 comes out of paint. Seems like MSN128 (CX 18) was the lucky one

That's the new storage area behind the L72 and L74 hangars. It has room for ~ 35 A320 sized aircraft.

Those are MSN141 and MSN143, but I not distinguise the ones behind, the one with the Hong Kong Airlines tale could be MSN153?

Yep, that's MSN 153 at the back.
The storage area is much larger than the photo shows. Last week MSN 112, 150, 154 and 155 were also seen around the same area. Most aircraft are just in temporary storage until a hangar becomes available. Aside from QR, most aircraft are shuffled around on a weekly basis.
The Ethiopian A350 on the left is MSN 147 that emerged from paint not so long ago.
