So sort of a trivia quiz

Which launch pad (or complex if you wish) has launched the most DIFFERENT

Right now LC-39B comes to mind:
Saturn V
Saturn IB
Shuttle
Ares 1-X
I'm sure there are others that can beat that?
Ok trivia/history buffs go to work.
Unless the ESA can beat that I sort of doubt that. Russian launch pads are more special purpose build outs aren't they?
In fact I couldn't find any history of a Saturn IB launch at LC-39A for that matter. So even with Saturn V and Shuttle and the F9H that will only make for 3 types of rockets. With the launch of SLS, LC-39B will still comfortably hold onto the lead with up to 5 different types!
