I have never used ham stockcubes i always use vegetable ones as they are OK with everything, not sure about chicken or lamb really but would say chicken first if you have nothing else.

Alternately if you have some carrots onions celery, pepper corns, bay leaves etc you could make your own stock.

Can you get ham stock cubes?! I've never seen them before.

I wouldn't bother with stock cubes at all if I had a ham hock. It will give enough flavour on it's own. You can use the other cubes if you want though, it will alter the flavour but it certainly won't make it inedible.

I don't like stock cubes as they're invariably full of MSG and other rubbish
