Help needed for the identifcation of a BF 109, Central france (June 1940)

Dear all,
This photo is supposed to have been taken in France: south the city of Blois, nearby the village of Chambord (well known for its famous Renaissance castle) in the county (département) of Loir-et-Cher (Central France / occupied area in June 1940) ..
It seems to be a crashed Bf 109 (E-7?), surrounded by German soldiers. Among the remains, we can see its propellers (2), its motor a Daimler-Benz with stenciled Nummer: “1 0 2 1 6 (or another number ??)” … Strange … I enlarge the number on the right corner of the shot.
I have no idea of the exact area, the date, the unit, the pilot, the circumstances etc …

Who could help?
Thank you.
Regards
Philippe

Hi. I can confirm that this is not from an me109E. The engine bearer is not from an Emil.
Regards Edward

I believe they reversed the negative when developing the picture.

Engine #
10316 or 10516
70316 or 70516
