Early cars have emission data ONLY on the 16-pin in the car - all other modules must be accessed via the 20-pin under the hood(bonnet).
BUT, the 16-pin inside the car will only work if the correct cap is installed on the 20-pin under the hood (bonnet). This cap loops the appropriate data lines back to the 16-pin connector. Without this cap in place, the 16-pin connector is dead.
At least, that my understanding of how things are arranged in the early E53 cars. Later cars have everything on the 16-pin ODB port.
