Library item that occurred to me while writing that last post. That Mozambique bell rhythm seems significant beyond just using it to play a Latin beat, hence this page, running it through its inversions. Half of them. You want to be psycho about it you can get the remainder of them by playing the second measure first.
On line 1 you can easily see how the rhythm is constructed: a single note plus a double, then a single plus three doubles, like:
⦾ ⦿⦿ ⦾ ⦿⦿ ⦿⦿ ⦿⦿
The actual Mozambique rhythm, which is on line 3, is an inversion of that. As is another common rhythm associated with Guaguanco, on line 6:
I have of course shared endless other ways of applying these type so rhythms to the drum set.
Also see this roundup page with a lot more of this type of thing— up to January ’23, at least— especially the tresillo/cinquillo inversion pages, and partido alto inversion pages.
I am happy to help you with any of the materials on the site, and with anything else drumming related— contact me for private lessons, online world wide, or in person in Portland, Oregon. All levels of players, and all people, are welcome.

Line 5 got me thinking of 'Fly Me To The Moon' when I sang it swung.
