I believe I am.  However, I thought there was an ITU specification for T.38 over RTP -- perhaps there is just that IETF specification.  Are you not a fan of RFC4612?

Maybe you could educate me on the difference.  My fax knowledge has faded with time.

There is a spec floating around to do exactly that (carry fax over RTP so that SRTP can secure it).  Advantage of using SRTP to secure fax is it separates the keying mechanism from security, so that Security Descriptions / MIKEY / DTLS-SRTP / whatever-is-invented-in-2020 will work just as effectively for voice as for fax.  And also that upgrading from a voice call to a "fax" call has no additional complexities due to security ("please press START to begin the fax transmission").
