The Imperial War Museum photo database has about 30 shots

Other British tanks used in small numbers were: Churchill VII Crocodile (used as gun tanks at the start of the British involvement not as flame tanks), Cromwell (not sure which mark) and maybe a few Comets (opinion is divided on that score).

Re:Centurions in Korea.
The Churchill was used mainly as a gun Tank, the Cromwell was a Mk VII and the Comet didn't see service in Korea, but were sent to Hong Kong incase the Chinese invaded there.
