He 111 bomb load permutations

I've run up against a question that I can't resolve from my available references. An He 111 crashed on to houses in Bromley, Kent on 9 November 1940 and the A.I.1.(k) report says 16 x SC 50 were recovered from the wreckage while another account (possibly anecdotal) speaks of 30 bombs being dealt with.

I know that a typical internal load was 8 x 250 kg but does anyone know what other combinations were possible without using external racks?
