You might look for the Real space correlation coefficient to see if your 
model fit that particular map better than before, but thats probably it.

There is no subset experimental data just influenced by one chain. The 
whole complex contributes to each measurement and vice versa your chain 
A model contribute to each measurement you made to generate the maps. 
Sorry, but that's it
