Here is the information I was able to dig up.

source_id is simply the Listed Market. You can reference this in the documentation.

Edit #2
Correct Values:
Reason:
44 - Deleted
48 - Halted
4D - No Active Market Maker
20 - None

Condition Code:
52 - Regular - This will include normal quotes, market maker opens, one sided quotes, Ask Depth Quotes, Bid Depth Quotes, and Both Bid and Ask Depth Quotes.
4C - Non-regular
