That's what made Bonham so great IMO, did not just copy other drummers but took a little from everyone and made it his own style and feel that fit perfectly with the band he was in.
Look at this video. Forward to 1.49 min and watch. This is definitely where Bonham got his idea to use his hands. He has also mentioned Morello as being an influence.

Any drummer can play with just their hands. Chico Hamilton, Papa Joe, Max, and many others have done it.

Thats what is interesting. All great drummers, sometimes unknowingly, get idea’s from other drummers.
Bonham took an idea from Morello and created his own.
Let's see em play with their feet.
