A/C compressors - DKS BH15, CH15 - What's the difference? Also - clutch removal 200

What's the difference between a DKS BH15 and CH15 A/C compressor?

My compressor seized up, and I'm looking to replace it -- don't know which type to get (either rebuilt or junk). I've bought the fcpgroton R134 conversion kit, and want to take advantage of this A/C downtime to install it, then get the appropriate type compressor. btw What I have is a DKS BH15 (with R12 freon), on an '85 240DL.

Also - to get the clutch off the compressor - just use a 3/4" bolt in the big hole in the front after removing the existing center bolt? So some folks say, but does this also apply for sure to the DKS compressor?

Thanks for your input.
