29th April 1941 - combat over Maidston Line

Hello,

I am searching for information about who (which Luftwaffe unit) was the enemy of no. 306 squadron on 29th April 1941. The combat took place over Maidston Line (railway line, as far as I understand) between 18.10 - 19.40.

It was described in no. 306 sqn ORB as follows:
Ordered to patrol Maidstone Line at 30,000, when at 26,000' Squadron saw 4 Me.109s at about 32,000' to the right. Two Me.109s imediately dived for France, possible as decoys. The Squadron began to climb, to get upsun of the other E/A but they also dived for France. Sgt. Kosmowski fired a short burst at extremely range at one Me.109 but makes no claim. Sgt. Machowiak was attacked from astern and his aircraft was hit in the tail, fuselage and wing.

Are there any names of German pilots who made claim against the damaged Hurricane of Sgt Machowiak or who was damaged by Sgt Kosmowski?
