Personnel put on the uniform of the enemy in order to pass through enemy lines onece through they attack an enemy position wearing that uniform such a ruse is prohibited by LOAC?

Law of Armed Conflict states that Lawful Combatants must display "fixed distinctive emblems recognizable at a distance". Wearing the uniform of the enemy would obviously fail to meet this requirement which means they would be engaged in hostile activities as Unlawful Combatants. Unlawful Combatants may be killed, wounded, or executed without repercussions, if captured they may be tried as war criminals, they have no rights to protection under the Geneva conventions. A soldier wearing the enemy's uniform or otherwise attempting to conceal their identity as a soldier will, in all likelihood, be executed immediately upon capture.

Is a belly button a common target when you bayonet an enemy?

Absolutely, driving a bayonet into the belly of an enemy soldier not only kills him but sends terror through the ranks of the other soldiers. Imagine a cold piece of sharpened steel entering your navel and driving into your intestines. The pain is pure agony and since it's a soft target the bayonet can be pulled out fairly easily while tugging out the guts of your enemy especially if the wound can be seen through the uniform with profuse bleeding and screams of the soldier. It may take hours to die as well.
