One and the same to be quite honest

As someone that resells both Genuine and OEM parts, we usually offer an OEM version whenever possible. Porsche makes great cars but they don't make every single nut and bolt on the car. Just like the headlights are actually Bosch, the side markers are Hella, the Oil Filter is Hengst, the MAF are made by Bosch (OEM)...the list goes on, when you are buying items that are OEM but not Genuine, it is generally considered equivalents just without the repackaging into Porsche boxes.

What you do have to be careful about is whether it really is a Bosch component...sadly there are Chinese knockoffs out there that have identical packaging as the Bosch boxes.
