they are effectively the same, and either type can be used with either a 205 or a 200 block (or a 202 for that matter)

No benefits using one over the other. Get the one with the largest journal sizes whether 2wd or 4x4.

i think the difference are minimal, and it is on the crank front nose and the fitment/interference of the front pulley, but are interchangeable.
